"Keep The Distance (Demo)" lyrics

"Keep The Distance (Demo)"

We kept the distance
Kept it at no one's insistence
Pushing against no resistance but ourselves
It's not complicated
Lovers get humiliated
I wanted you but couldn't say it out loud

There's a hole in my memory
It's widening with each new entry
Blooming like a flower and everything falls through
Each death's a redemption
Each second of increasing tension
And every ounce of pure prevention we have too

We're caught
Torn in the fabric
Enthralled
Drawn like a magnet
But we keep, keep the distance
Just in attempt to get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by

It's cool to miss you
It would be cooler still to kiss you
If you're heading out then I insist you make a move
But if it's not the moment
Then bottle up the breath I'm holding
Sorry to my serotonin
Some bad news

We're caught
Torn in the fabric
Enthralled
Drawn like a magnet
But we keep, keep the distance
Just in attempt to get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by
Get by, get by, get by
