Like a moth drawn to a flame
Like a lion who's been starving
I don't know if I'm being me
If I'm becoming one with insecurity
Fear tells me to leave this be
Overthinking tells me everything
I know I'm not being me
Never been one to suffer silently
So I'll sit here quietly
And break down slowly
So I'll Love you from a distance
Hold on to empty promises
Grab smoke without the flame
And if one day you decide to
Change your mind and follow through
I'll be waiting for you to come around
I'll be waiting here
You know I've done this all before
I fall hard, I rush in just to get hurt
Mirrors reflect the judgement on me
Feels like the only thing I am allowed to see
And it could've been the lack of confidence
It could've been the thought of breaking your heart
I'll never be the man you want me to be
So I'll sit here quietly
And break down slowly
And I'll Love you from a Distance
Hold on to empty promises
Grab smoke without the flame
And if one day you decide to
Change your mind and follow through
I'll be waiting for you to come around
I'll be waiting here
With tears in my eyes
I've no more left to cry
From waterfalls to broken dreams
I know, I have to let you go
But I'm just scared I'll end up alone
Alone, alone
So I'll love you, from a distance
