"Far Away"
by: Empty Moon
Can your heart take the weight
of this heart that will never break
it just keeps filling up, baby
sometimes with love sometimes with lust
sometimes so full that it could crush
or get anything it wants
I’m not saying I don’t miss you
I’m not saying I don’t care
but sometimes I am careless
sometimes I’m scared
what would you do if my heart
blew up in your face
or if it poured out my eyes, darling
would you be surprised would you say “the truth”
would you say “I already knew
cause I’m just like you”
would you say that you’re sorry that you kissed me
the first night that we met
would you say you were looking for something
that you didn’t get
well don’t forget how we took off our clothes
don’t forget how we slept so close
promises are only as strong as our bones
they break helplessly but they heal on they’re own
you’re so far away when I need you the most
and I’m so far away
