I’m tethered to a thread,

Suspended in the air,

Your words are falling softly,

But the meaning isn’t there.

You tell me that you’re longing,

But your actions pull away.

You whisper that you’re broken,

Yet you’re the one who strays.

It’s too far to bridge the distance,

Too far to reach your hand.

We’ve built this wall of silence,

A line drawn in the sand.

It’s too far to bridge the distance,

Too far to reach your hand.

I’d break the chain, defy the fall,

Face the fire for a chance.

But your warmth has turned to embers,

And it’s lost in circumstance.

You painted skies in crimson,

Now they’re fading into grey.

You wore the mask of kindness,

But the cracks gave you away.

It’s too far to bridge the distance,

Too far to mend the seam.

We’ve burned the bridge behind us,

Dissolving every dream.

... It’s too far to bridge the distance,

... Too far to mend the seam.

So I’m letting go of what we were,

Releasing what can’t stay.

No promises unspoken

Will chase the pain away.

It’s too far to bridge the distance,

Too far to heal this strain.

The whispers of tomorrow

Can’t erase the past’s refrain.

... It’s too far to bridge the distance,

....Too far to heal this strain

It’s too far to bridge the distance,

Too far to heal this strain.

The whispers of tomorrow

Can’t erase the past’s refrain.

... It’s too far to bridge the distance,

....Too far to heal this strain.
