lyrics

Look at me, I don't even believe the words coming out my own mouth
It's not like I intentionally lie but I'm hoping if I say it enough times
That I might find a reason to let it go
All I have's this anger and it's weighing me down
I fear I kinda like it

I'll keep you at arms length
Because my hands aren't steady enough to hold you

Carry me away, I don't want to stay in this place
The people are rude, the streets are a mess
And I am so tired of screaming about it
Someday I might travel the world
Only to realise what I needed was here the whole time

I'll keep you at arms length
Because my hands aren't steady enough to hold you
What I would give for a little more strength
To be able to push and pull when I needed to

All the little voices, no they don't know a thing
And all the harps in all the keys but they won't sing
All the sly glances you think I don't see
What is it that keeps me here waiting?

I'll keep you at arms length
Because my hands aren't steady enough to hold you
What I would give for a little more strength
To be able to push and pull when I needed to
