Distance

Verse 1:
Never thought that you'd go AWOL
But it sometimes feel like talking to a wall when we face off
Too deep in love and lust to notice your mask when it came off
So I could not see it was my plate that you ate off
Negative energy when you're in proximity
Only moments we're close is when we're intimate physically
Before you start this world war trilogy with me willingly
Can we agree to disagree? Just listen please

Tell me, can it be? I can't believe
You'd be the one to lie and deceive
Me to the point of borderline insanity
This pain you caused even time couldn't heal eventually
Now you're no longer in proximity

Pre-Chorus:
Longer days, sleepless nights
Now that you're out of my life
Intimacy is long gone
(How did it go so wrong?)
Loved you down head to toe
Back when we still was close
But love don't live here no more
(In case you didn't know)

Chorus:
There's a distance between us (so far away)
There's a distance between us (so far away)
There's a distance between us
Baby there's a distance, a distance, two worlds apart

Bridge:
Nowadays it feels like I don't know you anymore
Left everything we had behind when you walked out that door
You was giving up when I thought you was worth fighting for
But maybe there's a distance, distance, two world apart

Verse 2:
Lies that you told
Were broken promises before
A word was set in stone
Was I just one of your personal stepping stones?
You used to set the tempo to my heart's metronome
But now I'm left behind and left alone

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Verse 3:
Is true romance this possessive? Or are we manic depressive
Hopeless romantics invested
In pain and passive-aggressiveness?
If only we both moved on from the past and accepted it
We'd be past all the pettiness
Judgment-passing, and settled this
You're like a Lamborghini pinning me, with my back
Against a brick wall, you split me in half, collision contact
Even though you're the cause
Of my broken condition in fact
Girl you're what's holding me together
If you dipped it's a wrap!
Reliant on you to stay alive
Can't get the sensual feel of you off me
But you're my Lauryn Hill, Sweetest Thing killing me softly
Feeling like Aubrey, nothing was the same no more
Say no more, what kind of male archetype did you take me for?
Some perfect gentleman, captain save'em or husband?
Accessory to decorate, with a Suit & Tie just in (Justin)
Time to meet the parents, but you been still a confused female
Lost more than a tooth and nail in this emotional abusive hell
I love you, I hate you, it's just so unstable
The legs to my table, this shaky foundation that built our House of Pain
You hold me, you hurt me, control me and irk me
How could I think this could Ever Last, when tears from both our eyes doused the flame?
It's like when I ain't filling your void, the bond is incomplete
Our connection is only in the sheets, 7 inches deep
Is this sex, intimacy or toxic addiction?
I can only love you at close range but not from a distance
I feel like...

Chorus
