Part-Time Poet - Distance

As the lies roll off your lips
Like secret habits that you claim that you can quit
You let it go but it didn't leave
And all your efforts to move on seem so naive
Distance is spaces
From familiar faces
Between where you are and where you want to be
She caught a glimpse of herself
While imitating everyone else
And nearly dropped the brush as she was painting on
Harsh lustful lies like the pain is gone
Like a box of broken dreams
Where you placed inside your sentimental things
You bound them safe and lost the key
And lost your sense of who you first sought out to be
Distance is spaces
From familiar faces
Between where you are and where you want to be
She caught a glimpse of herself
While imitating everyone else
And nearly dropped the brush as she was painting on
Harsh lustful lies like the pain is gone
I see you for who you really are
There's no need to hide the strength that you've found in your scars
I see you for who you want to be
Let it find you and you'll finally set it free
She caught a glimpse of herself
While imitating everyone else
And nearly dropped the brush as she was painting on
Harsh lustful lies like the pain is gone
She caught a glimpse of herself
Imitating everyone else
She caught a glimpse of herself
Imitating everyone else
