The Distance Between Us

In the end, I fell numb

To disbelief and played along

Weaving and conceding

I veiled the face of what I had become

And the swarm remained oblivious

Heedless to the distance between us

The eyes of the night

I still carried them inside

They were my guide

As I roamed the forest deep

On moonlit trails of blood

Dancing upon my return

Panem et circenses

For those who were destined to burn

Panem et circenses

I would nourish and cultivate

Savor, encourage, and celebrate

The distance between us

Still, with every solitary feat, I also lost

The nature of my tragic disposition had its cost

Never to belong

Forever always one

Never to belong

Forever always one

With every solitary feat, I also lost

As I could never reach across

The distance between us
