Pulling Us Under

Verse 1

I've been staring so long at these old photographs

That I almost believe that they're real

I've been living so long with the ghost of us

That the pictures are all I can feel

When the days turn hard and the silence grows cold

And the distance builds up where the feeling once lived

We're drifting apart on different roads

Chorus

This love keeps pulling us under again

This love keeps pulling us under again

Looking so long at these pictures of you

But I never reach back to your heart

Verse 2

Remembering you standing quiet in the rain

As I ran toward the place where you were

We held on tight as the sky came down

I always stayed close when you feared

Why does the room feel so empty tonight?

You've turned away on your side

Did I miss every sign?

Has the respect run dry?

Chorus

This love keeps pulling us under again

This love keeps pulling us under again

Looking so long at these pictures of you

But I never reach back to your heart

Bridge

If only I'd found the right words to say

I could have held on to your heart

If only I'd found the right words to say

I wouldn't be falling apart

You cry out in your sleep

All my failures laid bare

There's a weight on my tongue

As the hopelessness stays

Something that felt so right

Just can't survive anymore

(Final Chorus)

This love keeps pulling us under again

This love keeps pulling us under again

Looking so long at these pictures of you

Always just falling apart

My pictures of you

Still pulling us under
