At Arms Length

The tears, the crying
This world is dying
And all I can picture is black
The lack, the sorrow
Digging deep tomorrow
Somehow it always comes back

The distance
I'm further away from you now
Drifting apart from my world
Misventure
I've started rejecting it all
I'll never let go of my world

Clinging to fragments
Pieces and segments
Never have I been alone
You've always been there
Feeding my strength
Always been there
At arm's length
Always been there
Feeding my strength

What I've become
The person I am
Stands taller than most of you all
The goals I've set out to achieve in this world
I face them now both big and small

The tears, the crying
Please stop your lying
And skip all your empty promises
The lack, the sorrow
Digging deep tomorrow
But somehow
It cannot get darker than this

The world is down
At arm's length
