Chris Michaud - Demused

Detach from the action
Call it a night off from attraction
A delayed response, reaction
Subconscious subtraction

Oh I simply cannot be here right now
Oh I simply cannot do this right now
I could only give you half as much as I take
Yeah I could only give you half as much as I take
We couldn't sustain

Step out from the party
Into the summer evening's breeze
Detach and remove and try to not collapse
A desperate move but now it feels like
All hope is lost

Oh I simply cannot be here right now
Yeah I simply cannot do this right now
I'm not afraid of what's inside you
I'm just afraid some day I'll lie to you
And everything we know will no longer be understood

Detach from you
Try to keep some distance
But I find myself
Chasing you down again
Hold back the desire
We two become fire
I can't let it burn away
But you've already gone

I simply cannot be here right now
Yeah I simply cannot do this right now
If only you took more than you gave
Then maybe I'd be justified in turning you away
But what a fool am I to have ever let you go
