PULLBACK (pushforward)

Pull back to push forward
We can't fight on how I feel
I can't be everything for you
But I'm sure I have appeal
And I know what you were feeling
With these bodies so much closer
Than I'd ever like to admit
But in the end won't say it's over, no

I just need contact, connection
Or maybe it's beyond that, affection
Few songs that can mention
The way that I feel but I'll never give attention
And I can't tell you what's real
When my whole world is a projection

Pull back to push forward
Getting better all the time
You know that I'd be there for you
But can't be there every night
And I can't tell what I'm feeling
But it's never been this intense
I think I hit a ceiling
But I'll take it all at my expense

And If you'd be there, that's cool, if not, that's cool
I'll rot on my own writing songs as my fuel
Dragging every day into a new adventure
And I'll file all these memories grow old with none to treasure

Paint the world
Paint my mind
Pretty swirls
So divine
Can't define happiness
So I put it on the line
Can't decide if I fit
So I write it like I'm fine
Can't align if I miss
So I write between the lines

But I'm sure you know the truth
That I'll waste my only youth
Only youth, on you
I got nothing more to prove
I can't prove it all to you
Put myself through this abuse

Pull back to push forward
We can't fight on how I feel
I can't be everything for you
But I'm sure I have appeal
And I know what you were feeling
With these bodies so much closer
Than I'd ever like to admit
But in the end won't say it's over, no

Pull back to push forward
Getting better all the time
You know that I'd be there for you
But can't be there every night
And I can't tell what I'm feeling
But it's never been this intense
I think I hit a ceiling
But I'll take it all at my expense

And If you'd be there, that's cool, if not, that's cool
I'll rot on my own writing songs as my fuel
Dragging every day into a new adventure
And I'll file all these memories grow old with none to treasure
