Song Description

This is a song about being in an unfulfilling relationship, and being too afraid to get out of it.

Lyrics

Loving by the numbers
Living on borrowed time
I just can't see her way
She just won't see mine
I can't stand the confrontation
So I just do nothing at all
Another day just slips away
While I'm waiting for the sky to fall

She's not there when I'm lonely
I'm not there when she cries
I'm running for isolation
When there's thunder in her eyes
I could start a new direction
But I'm not feeling nearly that tall
Another day just slips away
While I'm waiting for the sky to fall

My insecurities fly around
Like those monkeys in the Wizard of Oz
We're chasing rainbows
But we're dodging raindrops
The passion we once knew is hiding where it can't be found
I guess that love just sometimes stops

I don't know where we're going
I'm not sure where we've been
But we're going through the motions
Of a love that's wearing thin
Freedom seems so lonely
That I can't comprehend it at all
Another day just slips away
While I'm waiting for the sky to fall

Counterfeit love is lifeless
But it's better than no love at all
Another day just slips away
While I'm waiting for the sky to fall
Another day just slips away
While I'm waiting for the sky to fall
