You’re far away but somehow I feel
You’re too close now
Your voice in my ear’s very real
Afraid you’ll call now

I’ve been rehearsing all the things that I should say
Some verbal morphine for the pain

Chorus:

We’re worlds apart and you’re too close now
Bridging the gap just made the distance stand out more
I need to rest from stretching my nerves out

Pleading with the saint inside you
Forgive my sins now
Can I be set free and excused
I want to find out

I need your blessing while I know that I’m your curse
Some holy water for my thirst

Chorus
