[INTERMISSION XVII] Distance From Me

LYRICS:

You would always search for being loved

I wondered what that was about

If you could keep your distance from me

I think that that’s what I would do

If I were you which clearly I am not

If I were you which clearly I am not

I’d keep my distance from me

We can reverse our previous history

You know

You have such a penchant for leaving out

All the details of the war

And I could be kinder to you

If I thought that’s what you deserved

If I were you I would be ready with the sword

If I were you which clearly I am not

I’d keep my distance from me

Don’t you know that this is scrawled in our histories?

I was found hiding out in

Hallowed ground you shoulda left me there

Had I known you were sacred

I would not

Let you be tainted

You would never overlook the message

In the bottle on the shore

I suspect there’s something in there

That I don’t want you to read

If I were you I would be careful with the words

If I were you which clearly I am not

I’d keep my distance from me

The knowledge comes with volatility

You know

You can play the medic and tend to my wounds

We’ll let the fever pass

And I can ball my love into a fist and see if that hurts more

If I were you I think I’d learn to throw a punch

If I were you which clearly I am not

I’d keep my distance from me

Though I could use the company

I was found hiding out in

Hallowed ground you shoulda left me there

Had I known you were sacred

I would not

Let you be tainted

I get carried away by the thought of old age

Wondering if I’d trade wisdom for a handful of days

If I get elevated further than I deserve to be raised
