Distance [Verse 1] Your words in my head Like shards of glass You cut my face But I hold on - because I'm still alive You put dots again Where I need a door I count these steps To the exit To the checks [Chorus] Between us this distance is like a hole in the ground I scream at you And you keep going Between us this distance tears my nerves in a fog If you don't hear Then why should I scream at all? [ Verse 2] Your promises are ashes On my black hands I build a bridge for myself And you burn fires in my dreams Your eyes are cold Like ice in the yard I wipe the blood from my face And whisper to myself: "Don't burn" [Chorus] Between us this distance is like a hole in the ground I scream at you And you keep going Between us this distance tears at my nerves in the fog If you don't hear Then why should I scream at all? [Bridge] Tear me away From all these scenes Where you play a role And I am just a shadow of problems I clench my fist Under the ribs of my heart there is a knock If you are my fear Then it is time to crush you (hey!) [Chorus] Between us this distance is like a hole in the ground I scream at you And you keep going Between us this distance tears my nerves in a fog I erase your name And it doesn't hurt at all anymore
