[Verse 1]
Trust you
To show up here tonight of all nights
Don't say I didn't warn you
Didn't I?
Another drawn-out evening
What a big surprise
You'd act as though you're leaving
Not act on your desire
Refuse but don't you deny
[Chorus]
Now you're staring at space
In the palm of your hand
Getting what you can take
Taking what you think you can
Now you're staring at space
In the palm of your hand
Don't it seem like a waste?
Taking what you think you can
[Verse 2]
Catch me
Seems I'm failing into your arms
Watch me
I wander off into the dark
We both know it's no secret
When we could, we might
Just two broken pieces
Forced to fitting tight
Oh no, here comes that sinking feeling
We shoot for the stars
Only just hit thе ceiling
[Chorus]
Now you're staring at space
In thе palm of your hand
Don't it seem like a waste?
Taking what you think you can
Now you're staring at space
Always looking for a better man
See the look on your face
Take it if you think you can
[Outro]
Take it if you think you can
Taking what you think you can
Now I'm staring at space
In the palm of my hand
Don't it seem like a waste?
Taking what I think I can
Just staring at space
Thinking I'm the better man
See the look on my face
I'll take it if you think I can
While staring at space
Staring at space
