Distance
We were shoulder to shoulder
 And chest to chest
 But you would never let us
 Be heart to heart.
 
 If I took a step towards you,
 You would take 2 steps away.
 You kept pushing me away
 And keeping me in the dark.
 
 You said you loved me
 And you said you cared,
 But how can I believe that
 If you never showed it?
 
 I thought I could break down
 The wall you put up,
 But that wall just kept growing.
 
 Were you afraid of what would happen
 If you let me in?
 Or did you simply keep me around
 To say I was there?
 
 You never let me close,
 So why did I keep trying?
 Because I thought I could be the one
 To make everything all right.
