Distance

As I reflect back on it now
I can see where we went wrong
Our disunion was there from the start
It just took some time to dawn
But early on you drew me close
And you said that I was one among your own
But as the time went by, I looked to my side and saw I was all alone

For all those years, I did it all your way
And I could still show you the scars (show you the scars)
But when I did, you turned your face away
At least, I know now what you are
So, I'll keep my distance

You wonder if I'm still around
Yeah, I'm still in town, but I keep mostly to myself
But I'm still dumb enough to hope that you will call my phone
And say you want me back but you won't

For all those years, I did it all your way
And I could still show you the scars (show you the scars)
But when I did, you turned your face away
At least, I know now what you are
So, I'll keep my distance

Now that your words come back to you
Your empty promises show through
It's not what you say, it's what you do
By your own insistence
And when nobody's there for you
Then you'll know what you put me through
That day, you'll be somebody new
And that's when I'll close the distance
