Distance Lyrics

I thought we were at new points

But you're still hanging by the little

Thread you have

And in my head, yeah in my head

You're not the only melody on repeat

I should've just blamed it on my job

Or a party I had that night

But you know I hate parties

And I hate people crowding me in every direction

It all seemed worth it if it meant I got to hold you one more time

Every moment that lead up to this

Probably would've changed by now

If I gave it the chance

They say you're the one that got away

But I'm the one that changed

Cause I knew I couldn't stay

Who knows how to love when they're only 18

Oh, I need distance and time

Cause for once I felt happy

On my own

I need distance and time

So in my head

Yeah in my head

You're not the only melody on repeat

I should've pretended like I didn't know your number

I could've played the game you played in December

The on again off again

I'll call you back maybe

I should keep a list to remind of all the things you said

A to-do list to remind me that I didn't use my head

And holding my tongue should've done me better

When you placed me on a pedestal above all else

When you played with my heart and my jealous

When you knew love for me was brand new

Oh, I need distance and time

Cause for once I felt happy

On my own

I need distance and time

So in my head

Yeah in my head

You're not the only melody on repeat
