【Between the Steps】7. Out of Sync

Out of Sync

tick-tock, tick-tock,
same clock, different time zone,
we drift in time, each on our own,
tick-tock, tick-tock.

Where have you gone to?
and where am I?
we are out of sync,
but still holding on

Hello baby, it’s been a long time,
from time to time, we were on the same line,
Do you still feel something for me?
or just memories you leave behind?

We were close, now something’s delayed,
when I reach out, you fade away,
are we already too far away?

We’re out of sync,
you move on, I rewind,
same love, different beat,
you’re ahead, I can’t reach

tick-tock, tick-tock

We’re out of sync, can’t align,
I still wait, you decline,
same song, different verse,
we got lost in the reverse

tick-tock, tick-tock,
messages left unread,
you say “fine”,
but there’s more unsaid,
late replies, feelings out of thread,
we don’t fight,
just disconnect instead

tick-tock, tick-tock,
are we still in the same place?

Zone in on, zoom out,
baby, what are we now?
same scene, different lines,
lost and never found

maybe love was never wrong,
now we’re here… just not the same

We’re out of sync, out of time,
you let go, I still try,
same love, fading slow,
we were close… now I know

We’re out of sync, drifting wide,
you move on, I divide,
same song, different beat,
you don’t stay, I repeat

tick… tock…
tick…
…
