the distance apart - ...a parting is sure to follow lyrics

[intro]
since when we decided it’s time to move on?
i’m doing it all wrong, but does it really matter anymore?
i built some walls around my chest
so i can keep you outside where it’s safe
an exercise in futility

[chorus 1]
maybe if i cared a little more
maybe if i adored you like i had swore
perhaps it is time to let you go
so you can move on to something real

[spoken]
“however, you seem like a really decent person. promise not to be offended”
“that’s not something you can promise and i should know that”
i told them our story, and for that i am sorry
i never quite realized how often i apologize
still, i’m sorry about the harm, about the wrongs i’ve done
i’m trying my best so you can see what you really mean to me
and i willingly brought the flood to our doorstep
quite sure of how much it would take…
but it took everything that i cared for
now i wait for the water to carry me away
still, i see your very silhouette staring right back at me
just to find out: you were never there
“why would you still be there?” is what i ask myself every single day
believe me, i tried and died at least a thousand times trying not to fail you
but i’ve failed you anyway
“we’re lucky we had anything at all”

[chorus 2]
i changed my way home
you’re never at your balcony
and it’s funny ’cause i just remembered
your apartment is not even finished yet
i’m closing the door, but still i’ll leave it unlocked

[insert from track 1]
i wish i could stay here
head laid on your lap
and all the sadness i have left
just fading away with every second in this place
