What do you see in the middle of my words?
Can I speak a blessing, yet you hear a curse
What do you see in the middle of my words?
Wings for the fall, air for the birds
What do you see in the middle of my words?
What do you hear, babe?
Please talk to me, please explain
What you're hearing, babe
I don't want ghosts or thoughts of ghosts to haunt us, babe
Yet I ask what's the matter and you turn away
It won't matter if it's weightless
And I don't want to cause stress
So I'll sit within this mess
We can process
In the space between my words, I have hurt you
Yet I'd fill up the sky if just to love you better
In the shadows that you heard, a phantom caught you
So help me shine a light and face your fears together
What do you see, babe?
Please show your face, please explain
What you're seeing, babe
I want what I meant and what you heard to be the same
And I'll repent if I hurt you along the way
It ain't wrong if we're not thinking quite the same
I swear I'm not accusing you of anything
I'm just trying to get us on the same page
When I ask how you're feeling, you can say
In the space between my words, I have hurt you
In the shadows of my soul, you saw a man who scared you
I'll fill up the sky to let you know how much I care for you
And I will shine a light, we can face our fears, both old and new
I'll give you wings when you fall and a rose when you rise
'Cause we won't be perfect, but I know we can get it right
What do you see in the middle of my words?
Can I speak a blessing, yet you hear a curse
What do you see in the middle of my words?
Wings for the fall, air for the birds
What do you see in the middle of my words?
