The Closest Distance
I've built these walls to protect me
But they can't protect me from myself
At times, we can manage our way through
But there will always be at least one
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
There is something on the other side
I try to reach out
I'm reminded of why these walls
It's best I stay behind them
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
It doesn't have to be
Please just help
I have so much to offer
Just give me a chance
I promise I can do better
We could find a way
More than anyone
I wish I wasn't like this
Please help me
Not to feel this way
I don't want to be like this
Don't want to be this way
Probably best we have these walls
I'm just always disconnected
Probably best to have a few
You'll never know my absence
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
I wish I could feel you close
I wish this didn't have to be
I wish you wouldn't push me away
This nothingness is all I feel
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
It doesn't have to be
Please just help
I have so much to offer
Just give me a chance
I promise I can do better
We could find a way
More than anyone
I wish I wasn't like this
Please help me
Not to feel this way
I don't want to be like this
Don't want to be this way
A tangible absence
No tactile sensation
Outside these walls
The closest
An unfolding horizon
Of the way things are
That keep us apart
The closest
The way things are
It's growing further
The closest distance
But they can't protect me from myself
At times, we can manage our way through
But there will always be at least one
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
There is something on the other side
I try to reach out
I'm reminded of why these walls
It's best I stay behind them
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
It doesn't have to be
Please just help
I have so much to offer
Just give me a chance
I promise I can do better
We could find a way
More than anyone
I wish I wasn't like this
Please help me
Not to feel this way
I don't want to be like this
Don't want to be this way
Probably best we have these walls
I'm just always disconnected
Probably best to have a few
You'll never know my absence
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
I wish I could feel you close
I wish this didn't have to be
I wish you wouldn't push me away
This nothingness is all I feel
My refuge
A shelter
My sentence
My condemnation
It doesn't have to be
Please just help
I have so much to offer
Just give me a chance
I promise I can do better
We could find a way
More than anyone
I wish I wasn't like this
Please help me
Not to feel this way
I don't want to be like this
Don't want to be this way
A tangible absence
No tactile sensation
Outside these walls
The closest
An unfolding horizon
Of the way things are
That keep us apart
The closest
The way things are
It's growing further
The closest distance
