[Verse 1: Helen Marnie]

Distance versus time

Cutting verses down to size

Focus versus tears

Versus how-did-I-get-heres

Versus curses in your eyes

[Verse 2: Helen Marnie & Daniel Hunt]

Force of nature versus range

Nature versus odd or strange

"There's a fire starting here"

Versus "there's nothing to fear"

Versus lonely versus safe

[Chorus: Helen Marnie & Daniel Hunt]

Like a kitten versus rain

A cathedral versus love versus shame

Free versus out to sea

"Versus" versus "vs."

Me versus me

[Verse 1: Daniel Hunt]

Distance versus time

Cutting verses down to size

Focus versus tears

Versus how-did-I-get-heres

Versus curses in your eyes

[Verse 2: Daniel Hunt & Both]

Force of nature versus range

Nature versus odd or strange

"There's a fire starting here"

Versus "there's nothing to fear"

Versus lonely versus safe

[Chorus: Helen Marnie & Daniel Hunt]

Like a kitten versus rain

A cathedral versus love versus shame

Free versus out to sea

"Versus" versus "vs."

Me versus me

[Chorus: Helen Marnie & Daniel Hunt]

Like a kitten versus rain

A cathedral versus love versus shame

Free versus out to sea

"Versus" versus "Vs."

Me versus me
