Arm’s Reach Lyrics by Actor Observer

Songs For the Newly Reclusive

0

Arms reach
Keeping you at arms reach
Won’t open my heart again
Won’t open my heart again
Lonely
Afraid of being lonely
But company’s not everything
It’s safer underground

Arms reach
Keeping you at arms reach
Won’t open my heart again
Won’t open my heart again
Trusting
I used to be so trusting
Now I can’t trust in anything again

This world is full of leaches
And open hearts are worse for wear
I’ve learned there’s nothing wrong
With being so withdrawn
I’m running out of pages
Flipped through and frayed by flippant hands
Can’t close an open book
The binding’s been ripped off

So many other people’s thoughts
Forced in my head
I’m getting lost
Which are my own?
Which are my own?
I used to thrive in crowded halls
Now I favor narrow walls of solitude instead

This world is full of leaches
And open hearts are worse for wear
I’ve learned there’s nothing wrong
With being so withdrawn
I’m running out of pages
Flipped through and frayed by flippant hands
Can’t close an open book
The binding’s been ripped off

More alone with company
Than when I was held in isolation
Bloodletting my need for your validation
Drop me back down
Into the hole
That I crawled out of

You have to be
Within arms reach
In order to push someone away
You have to be
Within arms reach
To push away from everything
