Proximity

It's the wild west out here, baby
They're buildin' walls, hey watch your back cause it ain't safe out here
We promise you're our first and only priority
Yeah better be, cause we're the ones who sit here living in fear

It's easy to forget your place within
This swirlin' madness
They tell you they'll protect you from the sin
The danger and the sadness
Look a little closer, my old friend
Your safety's not in jeopardy
Brace yourself and dive into the deep end
Immersed in proximity

When you awake, open your curtains to a brand new day
You greet your neighbor, hi good morning, they look just like you
You never stop to wonder how it even got this way
But now you're trapped inside this mindset of the first founding few

It's easy to forget your place within
This swirling madness
They tell you they'll protect you from the sin
That threatening presence
Look a little closer, my new friend
Your safety's not in jeopardy
Buckle up and dive into the deep end
Immersed in proximity

Right out my window, there's a man, he's fighting demons inside
And in this moment he is pure, and he's got nothing to hide
And yet I sit here looking down, and watch his story unfurl
Eat your own words, girl

It's easy to forget your place within
This swirling madness
They tell you they'll protect you from the sin
The danger and the sadness
Look a little closer, my friend
Your safety's not in jeopardy
Open up your golden gates and lend
Yourself to proximity
