"Space Between" is the twelfth track from Sia's seventh studio album, This Is Acting.
Background
"Space Between" was originally pitched to Rihanna, but Sia decided to take it back because she had "seller's remorse" and wanted it back. It is not confirmed whether the song made the final cut for Rihanna's then-upcoming album, Anti, or was rejected.[1]
Lyrics
A never-ending sentence in my head
We lay hollow in the emptiness
I'm too tired to push you from the bed
No more fighting, there's no more fighting
There's no more fighting for us
Feel the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening
The space between is deafening
No one's moving, we lack the courage to
We lay in stalemate, wishing the other would
But we're too tired, we let the embers cool
No more fighting, there's no more fighting
Feel the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening
The space between is deafening
No more fighting, we've given up now
Silence says more than words
Imagination cures loneliness when you
Become a prisoner
Feel the void in our bed
The space between is deafening
Oh, we don't bend, we're breaking
The space between is deafening
The space between is deafening
