Nothing hurts more than distance
& I can feel it in your stare
the stale air that now separates
our hearts

Maybe its me
& its all my fault
I halt my feelings
for no reason at all

There's bitter sadness in my bones
& the tones of your laugh
no longer light the strings
of fuses in my heart

I'm soggy and damp
& became champ
of shutting out those
that mean the most to me

Matches no longer strike
& I hike to feel
to feel something
anything at all

I need to hang to dry
& learn why
my soul has folded
in upon itself
