Take the long way back to me
It's the wrong way, it has to be
You pull up in your car and you sit out in the driveway
Keep the lights on like you're still out on the highway
Practice in the mirror, everything you wanna say
Hope you come inside, tell me that you wanna stay
I feel alone when you get too close to me
It looks wrong, but we're just too close to see
It's cliche, but the writing's on the wall
Now I wonder why you even came home at all
(When you get too close to me)
Behind closed doors, it's a black hole
It's an old war with old souls
There was a place in my heart that only you could get to
Now you feel more like a stranger than before I met you
Let me hear the words, everything you never say
But I hope you never let go when I push you away
I feel alone when you get too close to me
It looks wrong, but we're just too close to see
It's cliche, but the writing's on the wall
Now I wonder why you even came home at all
(Feel alone-)
(When you get too close to me)
Have we lost who we are
Tryna save what we have?
Tell each other it's love
Even though it feels bad
We should run for our lives
We should never look back
We're just too close to see
Being close makes us sad
(Being close makes us sad)
(Being close makes us sad)
(Being close makes us sad)
(Being close makes us sad ...)
