Far From Near

As I sit here in silence,

I feel that I'm not alone

Can't speak, can't seem

to find the words

and my heart is in my throat

Don't want it to hurt

I'd rather stare and look

staring at these lines waiting to unfold

At the edge it feels hard

I never thought it'd be like this

we crossed that bridge one last kiss

goodbye

I tried to understand the differences we share

hoping that time would work them out

because the compromise would be unfair

to me and to you

we'd just fall apart

short of one another just to save our hearts

I never intended to desert you

but I can't ignore this calling from inside

I never wanted it like this

can't dismiss the will to make this line

well I guess that this is it

let's make this quick

one last kiss goodbye
