nearsighted

For miles and miles now

My mind has roamed for you

Feel like I'm on trial now

I said what you wanted me to

When you wanted me to

Didn't know that I'd see it better, till I walked away

Didn't know that I could feel much better, till I walked away

Don't think I would've ever seen it, if I had stayed

I can see it so clearly now from far away

Looking back line by line now

Nothing reads the same

Even the shadows feel a little displaced

Don't follow me the same

Didn't know that I'd see it better, till I walked away (Till I walked away)

Always thought it would be forever, till I walked away

Don't think I would've ever seen it, if I had stayed (If I had stayed)

I can see it so clearly now from far away

Oh, it was a trick of the light

Messing with my eyes, messing with my eyes

The red flags waving side to side

Got too tired, so I bleached them white

Aye-aye-aye-aye

Aye-aye-aye-aye

Didn't know that I'd see it better, till I walked away

Didn't know that I could feel much better, till I walked away

Don't think I would've ever seen it, if I had stayed (If I had stayed)

I can see it so clearly now from far away
