Negative Space Songtext
von Silverstein

Change the focus, blur me in the background
Shudder to think that I could ever be found
Don′t wanna be what the light hits last
Find me lost in the abstract

You're not like me
We′re perfect strangers
You fly close to the sun
And I run from danger
We're oil and water
And the portrait never fits the frame
And I can't make it

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle (oh-oh-oh)
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little
Meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space


The light dies slowly in a vacuum
Burn the flash and lock me in a dark room
I′m overexposed, but the picture′s black
(Lose me in a lack of contrast)

You're not like me
We′re perfect strangers
You fly close to the sun
And I run from danger
We're oil and water
And the portrait never fits the frame
And I can′t make it

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle (oh-oh-oh)
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little
Meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space

I'm gonna miss you when it′s all gone
I'm gonna miss you when it's all gone
I′m gonna miss you when it′s all gone
Yeah, I'm gonna miss you when it′s all gone


(It's all gone)
When I get washed out, and it′s all a blur
When I get washed out, we can't fix it now
It′s already burned

Give me a sign
Meet me in the middle
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little
Meet me in the middle

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle (oh-oh-oh)
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little
Meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space
