lyrics

Eyes that change colors in the light,
A glazed over green or blue.
Lifeless eyes, I'd waste away with you.

A heart that beats an ever steady rhythm.
An icy pulse that hardly reaches through.
Oh cold heart, I'd keep it warm for you.

Distance, distance keeps you safe,
And I don't wanna scare you away.
You're laughing 'cause it's funny
How you're fooling everybody, but me.

Your lips are curving at the ends.
You walk like you've got all kinds of time.
You love like you've got razors running down your spine.

You run your fingers through your hair.
The ring you wear, it's heavy now.
'Cause it makes us the same, and that weighs you down.
I'm afraid that weight is gonna make you drown.
I'm looking out for you, but I don't think you wanna be found

Out.

Distance, distance keeps you safe,
And I don't wanna scare you away.
You're laughing 'cause it's funny
How you're fooling everybody, but me.

There's a loneliness you carry inside your heart,
You gave it all to me to keep from tearing you apart.
'Cause I'm here and I'm hopeless and I'm holding out for you,
And I have to let you go, I've got everything to lose.

So do what you do, what you do best.
Chase the only one you know who couldn't care less,
And spend your life thinking you have to earn somebody's love.
Convince yourself you're happy, I hope that it's enough.

She's lying to herself.

Distance, distance keeps you safe,
And I don't wanna scare you away.
You're laughing 'cause it's funny
How you're fooling everybody, but me.

I cut my hands on the sharp edge cracks
When I run my fingers down your razorback.
I'll bleed the most for something that I can't have
When I run my fingers down your razorback.
