In A Kiss's Distance
(Girl):
Here I stand
Unable to move again
Trapped between love and common sense
The strings aren't tied
I'm drifting, but deep inside
My heart knows where its running to
The longer I wait, the further I fall
I convince myself to go, but no
I'm refusing to admit in a kiss's distance from your lips
Whatever was mine now is yours
Things were perfectly fine until I realized what it's like
What I'm missing without you
If I ever try to leave, I know I'll still be holding your hand
(Guy):
I'm not quite sure
Lately, I've felt this more
A great desire to spend all my time with you
I see your hesitance
I watch you struggle with pretense
You're okay, but I can feel your pain
The longer I wait, the harder it is to resist
I try not to dream, but it seems
I'm refusing to admit in a kiss's distance from your lips
Whatever was mine now is yours
Things were perfectly fine until I realized what it's like
What I'm missing without you
If I ever try to leave, I know I'll still be holding your hand
(Piano)
(Girl):
You make me believe this will last
(Guy):
You see through my every mask
(Girl & guy):
I'm just afraid, but not enough to let go of you
The longer we wait, the further we fall
I don't want to remember my life without you at all
I'm refusing to admit in a kiss's distance from your lips
Whatever was mine now is yours
Things were perfectly fine until I realized what it's like
What I'm missing without you
(x1)
(Girl):
If I ever try to leave, I know I'll still be holding onto your heart
(Guy):
If you ever leave, I know I'll fall apart

I Just Feel So Sad
Countless questions, very few answers
Knocks on my door, I pretend I'm asleep
Calls ringing all night, so I unplug the chord
I just want to be left alone
Scribbling on my checklist, not much done
Staring for hours at literal nothingness
Too many thoughts, it overwhelms
I hold myself and hum softly
This emptiness is overcrowding
There's too much to take in, I'm not breathing
It bears me down, it bears me down
And I just feel so sad
Concerns burning like candle flames
When to give up, when to linger on?
The required effort to convince myself now
It'll only get better from here
This emptiness is overcrowding
There's too much to take in, I'm not breathing
It bears me down, it bears me down
And I just feel so sad
(Piano)
Insensitivity in a world of impatience
My heart is drained from trying still
If in the end, no one understands
How will this hole be filled?
This emptiness is overcrowding
There's too much to take in, I'm not breathing
It bears me down, it bears me down
And I just feel so sad
I just feel so sad
I just feel so sad
I feel so sad
Never Let Go
Neither you nor I can say it's the right time
I've tried to find my way, but I'm falling out of line
It's not as easy as you think
I can't wish this violence away
But when I feel you close to me
There's a reason to have faith
We've been here several days, maybe we should go
We could wash this trace, though we'd be alone
I just want to keep you safe
Another route would be easier
You're still holding on to me
Can we survive the winter?
I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go
(Hmmm)
How can I make you see this is impossible?
You stare in my eyes and I believe it's possible
I pray the screaming will end
I pray these nightmares will leave
I pray I won't have to pretend
That you mean little to me
I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go
My pulse is all over the place
My tears are all over my face
Trying to please everyone I love
You pull me against your chest
I hear the sound I know best
I close my eyes and I'm okay
I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go
(x2)
You hold me close and I'm not alone
You hold me close and I can go on
