Scripture Lyrics

Observing the shrinking of my lonely world

I foolishly sought remedy in the arms of girls

I yearned to know their crazy ways

Their ins and outs, their heavy days and how they were

I would search my soul at night and wonder why it hurt

And so we sought love from community

There's no more time for things as fine as just the you and me

But I'd drop the tunes, text "see you soon"

Be on my way and say "I live only for you"

Look into your eyes and lie to hide my sins from you

Yup, it sounds pathetic to me, too

And a little dramatic

Who would believe this corny story's true?

This distance is only imagined

But space is required to light our own fires

I promise I'll never be far

I can search the sky at night and know just where you are

And there you are!

And there you are!

I still want you

But I need me, too

This distance is only imagined

But space is required to light our own fires

Baby don't slight me, Don't deny me

Maybe our love is the only way!

The way that you talk just racks my brain

Why we gotta' play these games?

I would search my world to know just where you were

I, I, I...

A wise man once asked me...

"What are you NOT writing about?"

The way that you talk just racks my brain

Why we gotta' play these games?

I would search my world to know just where you were

I still want you

But I need me, too

It's a little dramatic

The way that you talk just racks my brain

Why we gotta' play these games?

I would search my world to know just where you were

This distance is only imagined

But space is required to light our own fires

Baby don't slight me, Don't deny me

Maybe our love is the only way!

The way that you talk just racks my brain

Why we gotta' play these games?

I would search my world to know just where you were
