[Verse 1]
Are you out there? Have you seen all that I've done?
Is it so different from the world where you grew up?
Does it compare to the web that you've spun?

[Chorus]
There's something in the way
Between the tongue and brain
Was it written on my face all along?
You were right here all along
Cause I've been running out of things to say
While every clouded thought is free to rain on my parade
They take me miles away, I'm miles away
(I'm miles away, I'm miles away)
(I'm miles away, I'm miles away)

[Verse 2]
Time is of the essence; it pains me to admit
Some things I can't forgive, most things I will forget
Frightened by messages failing to transmit
Cause time is running out (My time is running out)

[Chorus]
There's something in the way
Between the tongue and brain
Was it written on my face all along?
You were right here all along
Cause I've been running out of things to say
While every clouded thought is free to rain on my parade
They take me miles away, I've been miles away
[Bridge]
You got me bored to death
'Til nothin' makes any sense
Pure chaos in my head
No nothin' ever makes any sense
When did it become the norm?
The grip of this mental storm
Has got its hold on me
A quick lift to boost my presence again

[Chorus]
There's something in the way
Between the tongue and brain
Was it written on my face all along?
You were right here all along

[Post-Chorus]
So, do I have your attention now?
When darker skies roll in don't you cross me out
Just pull me back into safer crowds
Cause I'm miles away, yeah, I'm miles away
I've been miles away until now
