The Distance

Sanity kind of got away from me
Calling up should've come more easily
With the back and the forth
Every hang up took the soul from me
I feel empty inside
More to lose than to try and make it better
I keep on going the distance
Time keeps on making me hate this
It was hot as hell, I still feel
As good as it was, I just couldn't take the distance
Honestly, so much that I couldn't see
Reaching out never satisfied me
With the back and the forth
Every hang up took the soul from me
I feel empty inside
More to lose than to try and make it better
I keep on going the distance
Time keeps on making me hate this
It was hot as hell, I still feel
As good as it was, I just couldn't take the distance
This heart never grew stronger
Distance never grew fonder
Just longer to wait
I'm never gonna wait again
I'm never gonna wait
Never gonna wait again
I'm never gonna
I keep on going the distance
Time keeps on making me hate this
It was hot as hell, I still feel
As good as it was, I just couldn't keep on
I keep on going the distance
Time keeps on making me hate this
It was hot as hell, I still feel
As good as it was, I just couldn't take the distance
Couldn't take the distance
Couldn't take the distance
Reaching out
Couldn't take the distance
Reaching out
