DISTANCE by Near Lyrics
[HOOK]
Tell me what it's gonna take for this to be different
I know that you love me, but you love me from a distance
Cause struggling with you is setting me inside a prison
When I saw me with you, you know this wasn't in the vision
Tell me what it's gonna take for you to be-- different
I know that you love me but you love me from a-- distance
Struggling with you is setting me inside a-- prison
I saw me with you but this was never in the-- vision
[VERSE 1]
Whether it's the truth or if you're lying there's no difference
And I know there's some feelings but I know there's something missing
Cause promising to love me is one thing
But turning back on me knowing you leave me with nothing
And I'm still finding me, so I'm clueless to you
So I'm keeping my middle finger exclusive for you
Ain't no coupe, ain't no tags
Life don't move, it ain't fast
Ain't no you, ain't no past
There's no truth, ain't no facts
And if you're hearing this: I'm too far gone, no turning back
I'm surrounded by company, don't know why I'm feeling last
Baby I know I fucked this up but can we leave it in the past
Whether you love me or not, my skies are always overcast
(Overcast)
[PRE-HOOK]
Tell me what it's gonna take for you to be different
I know you love me from a distance
And you got me inside a prison
But this wasn't in the vision
But you always play the victim
And we both know where this ends
So tell me when it's gonna end, just tell me
[HOOK 2]
Tell me what it's gonna take for you to be different
I know you love me from a distance
And you got me inside a-- prison
[VERSE 2]
Cellophane, baby you know I'm see through
Feel no pain, my needs are xenon know I see you
And at this point, you should check on me
I'm going crazy with no one next to me
And you know me, I'll always let the demons get the best of me so
Save me
Before you have to walk in on what's left of me
Cause I met the devil yesterday and lately we've been hanging
And I know he understands me but sometimes he's so impatient
I know you can't control it but sometimes you leave me hanging
But I'm hoping you don't notice so you don't walk in on me hanging
(So you don't walk in on me--)
[PART II]
[VERSE]
Inside of my head only part of me knows
Maybe the feeling I'm feeling is cold
No stopping the motion when I'm in the mode
Depression becoming a part of the code
Hold onto the past I ain't liking the new
Coming in last when I'm running to you
Fucking it up and I wanna redo
Hoping I crash when I'm whipping a coupe
Ooh, coupe, too, baby you, need a new who be true
Only few that I knew, ooh
Trying to crash when I'm whipping a Benz
Adding the money lost all my friends
Cash in abundance I can't find an end
Cutting the ties, I don't want them to mend
You want long term, but I never planned on it
Can I just be honest, I know you don't want this
But I could try this for a little, I guess?
But loving me will only make you feel less
I warned you I've always been clear, VVS
So don't ask me how this all turned to a mess, cause
I'm coming up it's your loss, they always change like coin toss
Shape-shifters switch up, me I never change form
Snakes, Lizards, Rats, hunting heads that's what I came for
Baby if I die, know I did it on my own terms
Past year dry, got me praying for a rainstorm
Tell me what it's gonna take for this to be different
I know that you love me, but you love me from a distance
Cause struggling with you is setting me inside a prison
When I saw me with you, you know this wasn't in the vision
Tell me what it's gonna take for you to be-- different
I know that you love me but you love me from a-- distance
Struggling with you is setting me inside a-- prison
I saw me with you but this was never in the-- vision
[VERSE 1]
