lyrics

CAN’T GET NEAR YOU

Holding on to memories from a not so distant past
Sign away the bad ones
Well I can’t get near you
Thought about that Sunday when they laid you out to rest
Now I can’t get near you

Premonition central, yeah the day we said goodbye
Tried to best ignore them
Now I can’t get near you
Patching up the broken holes, the ones we tried to hide
Now I can’t get near you
I reach for your chain
But I can't feel you
I can't even place my name

Once upon a time when we were less than strangers
Nothing in this world could separate our souls
Once upon a time our love was full of danger
Stumbled into darkness now we’ve lost control

Trash the older future for a new and hipper cast
Sailing down the runway
Well I could not read you
Cleaning up the sutures (friggin' wreckage from the blast)
Now I can’t get near you
All contact is lost
I can’t get near you
I’m dizzy from talkin’
And our love keeps slippin’ deeper into a void
I can’t hear you
I’m drowning in all this noise

Once upon a time when we were less than strangers
Nothing in this world could separate our souls
Once upon a time our love was full of danger
Stumbled into darkness now we’ve lost control
