Lyrics
The Distance That Took You Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know I love you but I won't
Tell you a thing in case you don't
I know I miss you, but it's o-kay
I don't get depressed when I am lone-ly
But I just need something to calm my nerves
Preferably a cigarette, or something just as absurd
Or maybe I want my anxiety to stay
'Cause in the end, it's all I have to ease the pain
Of the distance that took you away
I'll take a drink because I'm lost
Trapped somewhere deep inside my thoughts
But, if for some reason you forget
Well, I'll just remember you instead
But I just need something to calm my nerves
Preferably a cigarette, or something just as absurd
Or Maybe I want my anxiety to stay
'Cause in the end, it's all I have to ease the pain
Of the distance that took you away
