Steady hand, tireless touch

Some days, dear, you're too much

Too much for me

Watch the phone day and night

Waiting and praying you won't decide

To call me by your side

I'm tired and restless

From the distress you're sending my way

I can't help everyone

Believe me, that ain't gonna change

Carve yourself into my blood and bone

Use me as a stepping stone

I am the one you run to

'Cause you always knew there's nothing I won't do

For you

So I'll build another bridge

And I'll dig another moat

Just to change the distance between us

By a meter

Or anything that comes close

'Cause I am balanced and sure

That you're still

Immature

And I'll keep

Pushing and pulling these waves

Til they come back

To shore

And if this all cancels out

When you line up the numbers in a row

I'll be left

At ground zero

Your words way heavy and hard

And show no regard

For anything that starts to bleed

If I reach out, you shut down

Then come back around

When I'm someone you need

You dig yourself into my blood and bone

You use me as your stepping stone

I am the one you fall on

I can't go on dragging you along

So I'll build another bridge

And I'll dig another moat

Just to change the distance between us

By a meter

Or anything that comes close

'Cause I am balanced and sure

That you're still

Immature

And I'll keep

Pushing and pulling these waves

Til they come back

To shore

And if this all cancels out

When you line up the numbers in a row

I'll be left

At ground zero

So I'll build another bridge

And I'll dig another moat

Just to change the distance between us

I don't care how far or how close

'Cause I am suffocating but sure

That you're still immature

And I'll keep

Pushing and pulling these waves

Til they come back

To shore

And since this all cancels out

When you line up the numbers in a row

I'll be left

At the start of the mess

I'll be left

At ground zero
