Tan Lejos

Maybe my face doesn't say everything I need to say
maybe my smile seems cold, fake, and distant
maybe I'm just looking for a way
to distance myself from this pain (repeat)

I must decide whether to forget or accept
you who told me life was beautiful
you who supported me in everything, no matter
how far I wish to go
Time is unable to heal my wounds
since everyone has mocked me
and left me alone living with ghosts
because one day they believed in me

Today you're so far away that I feel dead
and your destructive words poison what I feel
today you're so far away that I feel dead

if you come down a bit, you'll find me
on a wall, stuck in a corner
staring into nothing, seeking courage
dreaming that this is my only option

I must decide whether to forget or accept
you who told me life was beautiful
you who supported me in everything, no matter
how far I wish to go
Today you're so far away that I feel dead
and your destructive words poison what I feel
today you're so far away that I feel dead
