Analysis of distance
distance, distance, distance
if I distance myself from you, I can move on
if I distance myself from you, maybe the thought of you and him wouldn’t hurt so much
if I distance myself from you, I won’t feel like I’m getting sick at the thought of you no longer needing me like you used to
if I distance myself from you, I’ll be able to listen to the songs and read the books or watch the films we talked about without wanting to cry
if I distance myself, every song I write won’t be about you
if I distance myself, losing you wouldn’t be a struggle
if I distance myself, I’ll no longer spend countless nights sitting on the floor waiting for your text praying you’d come back
if I distance myself, I’ll finally accept we are over
if I distance myself, maybe I’ll finally stop loving her
