Clockwork Hearts

[Verse 1] Late night, static on the radio dial I’m tracing the ghost of your phantom smile We’re two ships crossing in a hurricane sea You’re everything I want, but not what I need I’m drowning in the wreckage of the plans we made Watching every color in your aura fade I reach for your hand, but I hit a wall God, it’s a long way down when you’re meant to fall. [Verse 2] I’m staring at the ceiling, counting all the scars Wondering if we’re aligned under different stars You’re fighting your demons, I’m chasing my ghosts We’re burning the bridges that we needed the most It’s not that the spark isn’t catching the light It’s just that the shadows are stealing the night My heart is a trap, yeah, I’m locked in the frame Knowing that love isn’t enough to sustain the flame. [Chorus] Oh, we met at the wrong time, the wrong place I’m losing my breath in the ghost of your space It’s a beautiful tragedy, perfect and cruel I’m just the victim and you’re just the fool If the clock ticked back, would we get it right? Or are we just echoes lost in the night? Yeah, we met at the wrong time, and it’s killing me slow I love you too much to ever let you go. [Verse 3] I see the potential, the life we could lead But I’m planting the garden while you’re pulling the weed I’m building a future, you’re stuck in the past How long does a love like this actually last? I’m tired of the running, I’m tired of the chase I’m tired of seeing your tears on my face It’s a cold kind of rhythm, a dark kind of soul Giving you pieces that make me feel whole. [Chorus] Oh, we met at the wrong time, the wrong place I’m losing my breath in the ghost of your space It’s a beautiful tragedy, perfect and cruel I’m just the victim and you’re just the fool If the clock ticked back, would we get it right? Or are we just echoes lost in the night? Yeah, we met at the wrong time, and it’s killing me slow I love you too much to ever let you go. [Bridge] Maybe in another life, we’re dancing in the rain Without all this heavy, without all this pain But here in the static, the silence is loud I’m looking for sunlight behind every cloud It’s the timing, it’s the timing, that’s all that it is A kiss that’s a goodbye, a love that’s a miss. [Outro] Just a miss… Yeah, we’re just a miss. I’ll keep the memories, you keep the space I’m fading away from your warm embrace Wrong time. Wrong place. Just you and me… out of sync. Yeah.
