Inch Lyrics

Inch

I keep you down inside my heart
We watch the whole world fall apart
And melt into an ether sea

You failed to take me by the hand
I failed to make you understand
That all I wanted was your hands
On me

I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
Am I an inch away from heaven?
Am I an inch away from heaven?

The walls have ears
The stones have names
We gave in all our silly games
I knew I'd never let you go

And there is no one I can blame
Because your heart remained the same
I swear I'll never let you go

I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
'Cause every day I die for this
Am I an inch away from heaven?

Am I to be tortured
And not be the victim
All twisted up by my own pride
Am I to be stranded
Just waving my arms in the air
While you're trying to lie

I'm captured in your eye
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And there's too many sad goodbyes
Am I an inch away from heaven?
And just a little higher now
'Cause we're so close and far from this
Am I an inch away from heaven?
