Verse 1
We sit awash in silent reverie
I gaze upon your stoic face complacently
As your unspoken converation seeps into me
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

Daydreams are broken promises
Shattered pieces of hope always raining on reality;
Tiny sharp fragments so quick to cut the heart
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

Arms eager to hold someone besides your ghost
But too afraid to let go of air
And risk the loss of our sunsoaked joy-filled facade
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

The paradox within me tempts indifference
Contradicting feelings about you set my heart on fire
And the sparks shock the life out of your kiss
Maybe this is as good as it gets
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

Chorus
Your silent song sweeps over me
And I forget the lie our life is supposed to be
Your melancholy seems to drag me in
Your affection is impossible to win
But the music in your soul takes control of my feet
I'm dancing again to the fluid beat
Of your silent song.

Verse 2
I know that when the clouds finally lift
I might not like what i see
But the music drifting from their depths calls to me
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

Dull eyes drink me into their opaque grief
Searching me for a souce of life
You can only survive through my memory
Maybe this is as good as it gets.

Can you hear the bells ringing in the distance?
No one hears your bells ringing in the distance
But me

Chorus

Hook
Here in this surreal world your music is the web you weave
To catch me unsuspecting in your fruitless snare
So I can't tell if I am even real
Please don't let this be as good as it gets.
