Going the Distance

Fireworks is all I have to say

Leaving here tonight was a big mistake
Considering everything I haven't said to you
I don't even know what has tripped me up
It's all my fault
I'm sorry
Wait don't apologise for your actions
This isn't your fault
Nature or nurture I haven't decided
Maybe it's my horizons that need to widen
Widening like a gaping wound
Bleeding my words out on to you
And yet I say nothing
I stay silent still
Your profile your silhouette
Moving with free will
You are beautiful
Do you know that?
In the moonlight you shine bright and what do I do
I sit back and maybe I lie a little
Not too much to upset you
But enough to upset me
You can't see but I know
You can breathe but I know
I know going the distance is always the hardest part
Dividing your soul can take time and take heart
But I believe we can make the trip worthwhile
I once again apologise for something I can't control
My vocabulary tends to lessen as I go on and on
It's not like I could ever write a song
For music to my words would be meaningless
That's not what I want the participant to focus
The tension of fifths and fourths on a string is no match
For what has to be said, what has to be hatched
From my mouth to your ears
From your mouth to my cheek
From my cheek to your heart
From your heart to mine
Going the distance is always the hardest part
I don't believe I said I love you
I don't
at least not in a way that makes any sense
those are words I speak without falsities
Go on and figure it out
I have no need to hide anymore
I have said what needs to be said
You're teaching me a lesson in life
But may I say how pure
How lovely
How spectacular
How synonym
How et cetera
You are
Yet so far away
In home and in heart
I recount my words in a similar tone
Going the distance is always the hardest part
