"arms length" lyrics

We're cordial
Hurts to know that that's the new normal
It's subtle
Suddenly it got a bit formal

You're polite
Always nice
Always coming out the good guy
Only I
Could see why
That's the cruelest way to die
It's a knife
In disguise
Oh you're killing me with kindness
I

I'll be where you left me
Arms length from your body
Just so you can still reach out
Can't get any closer
Couldn't ask for closure
This all we can be now

Think you're gone but I'm not sure
Once I'm yours I'm always yours

So I'll wait here

Maybe someone beat me to the punch
Maybe it just got a little much
Were you something other than in love
And did you always know it in your gut

But it's okay
There's no blame
I could give to you anyway
It's a shame
We became
Just an ember from a flame
People change
That's the way
But I'll be here all the same

Right here where you left me
Arms length from your body
Just so you can still reach out
Can't get any closer
Couldn't ask for closure
This all we can be now

Think you're gone but I'm not sure
Once I'm yours I'm always yours

So I'll wait here
