Pushing Away

(album: Mellow Drama - 2015)

When I walk, I won't open my heart
Hold on to my thoughts
In a dream told you everything
And then I got caught
So why wait, take whatever they make
Just steady my pace but
I still feel you pushing away

You're out of reach
I keep moving my lips pretending to speak
When all that was, say it's you that I want
Whatever that means
In my brain, you're the drug that I lease
To get to through the pain but
I still feel you pushing away

I'm on the road
That should have never even got me home
And I only ever feel alone
Tell me do I sound insane?
If you could read me like an open book
I'm just a picture that you never took
Won't you say it to my face?

I'm alright, now I'm saying I'll jump
But you know I might
I'm concerned, I'm just using my words
And taking up time
So don't break, it's coming too lane
And I wanna stay but
I still feel you pushing away

I'm on the road
That should have never even got me home
And I only ever feel alone
Tell me do I sound insane?
If you could read me like an open book
I'm just a picture that you never took
Won't you say it to my face?

How'd we get so far again?
This is what we want, she said
You're in every breath I spend
You're in every breath

I'm on the road
That should have never even got me home
And I only ever feel alone
Tell me do I sound insane?
If you could read me like an open book
I'm just a picture that you never took
Won't you say it to my face?

When I walk I won't open my heart
Hold on to my thoughts
In a dream told you everything
And then I got caught
So why wait, take whatever they make
Just steady my pace but
I still feel you pushing away
