i'd been to the end of hope
been trapped inside, staring out the window
alone, it's hard, only echoes on the boulevard
and the desolation tears in two
nobody on the road
nobody on the beach
i feel it in the air
we met at the end of night
i held you in my ears, a whisper like the sunrise
just our voices crossing on the radio waves
but for the moment
all of the time still
passing by
i stood in the doorway
i stared at the freeway
what a beautiful thing we tried
and for a while it was alright n
with love i would come undone
opened eyes to fear, convinced i was the only one
to know true pain, to feel it and to fight to remain
in every moment
with all of the time still
passing by
i froze in an instant, you felt it as distance
you were right
and in the moment
all of the time still
passing by
we tried to make meaning
our moment was leaving
but it was care, it was dignified
and for a while it was right
nobody on the road
nobody on the beach
i feel it in the air
the summer's out of reach
we'd already said goodbye
but we were hanging 'round, just white noise on the other side
suspense, dead air, not here and not yet there
our forever stuck between sight and sound
