Lyrics
We knew this was part time
Don’t expect no benefits, no
It’s not the right time to try and fudge the rules a bit
But you know this distance is a bitch
Whoah (Yeah)
It’s not that I don’t care (It’s not that I don’t care)
I’m just not all the way here (Just not all the way here)
It’s not that I’m not feeling you
Sometimes your world seems far away
No matter what you say
I still love, I still feel, I still hate
Just from a distance (Yeah)
Understand I don’t jump right away
Only from a distance (Yeah oh)
I guess we got nothing better to do than wonder ‘round
Ya think I’m trippin’, silent treatment as I leave the house
I used to say I’d climb the tallest mountain for ya, babe
But when I reached the summit
Looked around, behind you stayed
You jump early to conclusions
And I, so late
By the time I’ve got the words, I’m freaking miles away
Ya tell me I might lose my spot if I don’t fill this space
(And I used to think)
Back in the day
These comets tried me
In my atmosphere, they’d evaporate
Things weren’t so great
And then I saw her face, force fields start to fade (Uh huh)
Trying to break
This great wall of you and me is asking for catastrophe
‘Cuz each brick I take
Could make it all come crashing down
It’s not that I don’t care (It’s not that I don’t care)
I’m just not all the way here (Just not all the way here)
It’s not that I’m not feeling you
Sometimes your world seems far away
No matter what you say
I still love, I still feel, I still hate
Just from a distance (Yeah)
Understand I don’t jump right away
Only from a distance (Yeah oh)
Some frigid livin’ this is we don’t give nothing except
Shadows of a fuck
Phantom feelings filling in
Always chilling, rarely willing to act on these feelings
We let indifference take over this relationship
