Gatsby

[Verse 1]
We put ourselves to the side
Chasing after green lights
The closer it seemed
Yet still right out of our reach
Even when fingertips brushed it
Blisters from where we touched it
Get so close and we blink
It’s still so far away

[Pre-Chorus]
Instead of nursing the relationship, we tore it apart
I broke it off and sunk beneath my skin alone in the dark
Copacetic and distant
Forgot just what I was missing
Chasing after the green light

[Chorus]
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
In the sun, underground
I need a miracle, oh
I need a miracle
Coasting on chеmicals
To get high when I’m low
I need a miracle, oh

[Verse 2]
Our lovе became polarized
Chasing after green lights
Surfing waves of self-blame
When it was out of our reach
Our current was disrupted
Radio silence sudden
Once so close and we blinked
Now you’re so far away

[Pre-Chorus]
Instead of nursing the relationship, we tore it apart
I broke it off and sunk beneath my skin alone in the dark
Copacetic and distant
You were what I was missing
Always chasing the green light

[Chorus]
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
In the sun, underground
I need a miracle, oh
I need a miracle
Coasting on chemicals
To get high when I’m low
I need a miracle, oh, oh, oh, oh
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
Our nights together
I miss the feeling of being part
Of something better
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
I get high and I know
I need a miracle, oh

[Bridge]
Maybe you said it best
“I’ll be all you have left”
When the lightning is gone
And to hell with the rest
Your words radiate deep
In my insomniac sleepwalk
Chasing the green light

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
In the sun, underground
I need a miracle, oh
I need a miracle
Coasting on chemicals
To get high when I’m low
When I'm low, when I'm low

[Outro Chorus]
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
In the sun, underground
I need a miracle, oh
I need a miracle
Coasting on chemicals
To get high when I’m low
I need a miracle, oh, oh, oh, oh
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
Our nights together
I miss the feeling of being part
Of something better
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
I get high and I know
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
In the sun, underground
I need a miracle, oh
I need a miracle
Coasting on chemicals
To get high and I know
I need a miracle, oh, oh, oh, oh
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
Our nights together
I miss the feeling of being part
Of something better
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
I get high and I know
I need a miracle, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Outro]
I need a - I need a
I need a miracle
I need a - I need a
I need a miracle
