Pushing Away - Kevin Garrett

When I walk, I won’t open my heart

Hold on to my thoughts

In a dream told you everything

And then I got caught

So why wait, take whatever they make

To steady my pace but

I still feel you pushing away

You’re out of reach

I keep moving my lips pretending to speak

When all at once, say it’s you that I want

Whatever that means

In my brain, you’re the drug that I lace

To get to through the pain but

I still feel you pushing away

I’m on a road

That should have never even got me home

And I only ever feel alone

Tell me, do I sound insane?

If you could read me like an open book

I’m just a picture that you never took

Won’t you say it to my face?

I’m alright, no one’s saying I’ll jump

But you know I might

I’m concerned, I’m just using my words

And taking up time

So don’t break, it is coming too late

And I wanna stay but

I still feel you pushing away

I’m on a road

That should have never even got me home

And I only ever feel alone

Tell me, do I sound insane?

If you could read me like an open book

I’m just a picture that you never took

Won’t you say it to my face?

How’d we get so far again?

This is what we want, she said

You’re in every breath I spend

Yes, you’re in every breath

I’m on a road

That should have never even got me home

And I only ever feel alone

Tell me, do I sound insane?

If you could read me like an open book

I’m just a picture that you never took

Won’t you say it to my face?

When I walk I won’t open my heart

Hold on to my thoughts

In a dream told you everything

And then I got caught

So why wait, take whatever they make

To steady my pace but

I still feel you pushing away
