[Verse 1]
I have such envy for this stranger lying next to me
Who awakes in the night and slips out into the pre-dawn light
With no words, a clean escape, no promises or messes made
And chalks it all up to mistake, mistake, mistake
[Chorus]
And there are no tears, just pity and fear
And a vast ravine right in between
[Verse 2]
A storm at sea, the bow cracked and I was capsizing
And I sunk below where I swore I would never go
If you can't stand in place, you can't tell who's walking away
From who remains, who stays, who stays, who stays
[Chorus]
And there are no tears, just pity and fear
And a vast ravine right in between
Spare no tears, just pity and fear
And I recall the push more than the fall
The push more than the fall
