Ad astra per aspera

I close the door
Like so many times, so many times before
Filmed like a scene on the cutting room floor
When I let you walk away tonight
Without a word

I try to sleep
But the clock is stuck on thoughts of you and me
A thousand more regrets unraveling
If you were here right now, I swear,
I'd tell you this

Baby I don't want to waste another day
Keeping it inside is killing me
'Cause all I ever want, it comes right down to you
I'm wishing I could find the words to say
Baby I would tell you every time you leave
I'm inconsolable

I climb the walls
I can see the edge but I can't take the fall, no.
I've memorised the number
So why can't i make the call
Maybe 'cause I know you'll always be with me
In the possibilities

Baby I don't wanna waste another day (another day)
Keeping it inside is killing me
'Cause all I ever want it comes right down to you (to you)
I wish that I could find the words to say
Baby I would tell you every time you leave
I'm inconsolable

I don't wanna be like this
I just wanna let you know
'Cause everything that I hold in
Is everything I can't let go
