Nothing to know
'Bout what to let go of
Time goes so slow though
Things that we take
Sad all that's at stake
It's all that can break

Hoped for more
That we could look around
Instead of at the ground
Looking forward
A set of hopeful eyes
A pattern never compromises

Looking away feels like the safest choice to make
You can only swing so far one way

Nothing to show
For what we're headed toward
The voices from below
Only noise
Circling all around
Buries the quiet sound

Leaning away is just a safer way to say
You can only swing so far one way
You can only swing so far one way

And if you're asking me to
I'll always be here, standing there right behind
As long as you try to be kind

So what's there to say about the troubles in the doorway?
You can only swing so far one way

You can only swing so far one way
You can only swing so far one way
