Distant Boy Lyrics by Joseph Hooligan

Another Crime in the Rust (EP)

2019

How can I see someone so distant
Who's right in front of me
Always so resistant
Yet always so lonely
Those eyes are
Looking off so far away
In his mind
Is he exploding

Is he in a trap
And he can’t escape
Something tells him what to say
Did he throw away the key
To keep the darkness at bay

Relentless in the ring
That birds gonna sing
His swan songs in
The bargain bin
Will he get the call
Is it his ringtone
For a boy so small
He can sure drone

Is he in a cell
With lines he can't erase
He has the days on his arm
Will he come back
Did he really go away
Does he have nothing to say

Distant boys looks on
From a skyscraper building
He sees all
Your fiddling
He sees all
Your meddling
Distant boy
Is gonna go away
And fly
