Negative Space

Did I wait?
Or hesitate?
Did I stutter when I said I'd be there, babe?
Didn't I call?
Or give my all?
Is there another who could make you feel this way?

It's not what you do, it's what you don't do
It's not what you say, it's what you don't say
It's not what you choose, it's what you won't choose
It's not that I'm gone, it's that I'm gone away

Why can't you see what you mean to me?
It's not who you are, it's who you can't be
It's not what you were, it's what they said you did
It's the negative space, babe, that's what it is
It's the negative space

Why can't you see?
Why can't you see?
'Cause it feels like it's staring you right in the face
Why can't you choose?
Why can't you lose?
It's the same fight, like every night, same place
It's the negative space

Was I late?
Did I flake?
I don't wanna share or split it up two ways
'Cause I want it all
And that's for sure
There's no other who could make me feel this way

It's not what you do, it's what you don't do
It's not what you say, it's what you don't say
It's not what you choose, it's what you won't choose
It's not that you're gone, it's that you went away

Why can't you see what you mean to me?
It's not who you are, it's who you can't be
It's not what you were, it's what they said you did
It's the negative space, babe, that's what it is
It's the negative space

Why can't you see?
Why can't you see?
'Cause it feels like it's staring you right in the face
Why can't you choose?
Why can't you lose?
It's the same fight, like every night, same place
It's the negative space

It's the negative space
It's the negative space
It's the same fight, like every night, same place
It's the negative space
It's the negative space
It's the same fight, like every night, same place

Why can't you see?
Why can't you see?
'Cause it feels like it's staring me right in the face
Why can't you choose?
Why can't you lose?
It's the same fight, like every night, same place
It's the negative space
It's the negative space
It's the negative space
