A Velvet Feel

What you heard of is the truth
Poisonous, the stories you told
I let you go
To gain control

Never get this one thing straight
Emotions left unread
Can't see it, can't feel it

Always worth it
Spare myself from lies
Always worth it
To admit I'm right

Let us think it's growing out
Distance keeps heating it up
Help me, define it
I'm losing focus

Far away
Please come back, lift me up
Help me, define it
Painfully honest

Attention never payed
Lonely and getting sick
Can't see it, can't feel it

Distract, nothing more to expect
You left me stabbed
With empty hands I'm left
Painfully bereft

Nothing more to expect
With empty hands I'm left

Struck by a velvet feel
Not as busy as I pretend to be
A flame that I have thought
Could never lose its warmth

Let us think it's growing out
Distance keeps heating it up
Help me, define it
Painfully honest

Let us think it's growing out
But distance keeps heating it up
Help me, define it
I'm losing focus

No matter what I do pretend
Caught in the act with empty hands
Depression in silence
Help me to fight it

Far away
Please come back, lift me up
Help me define it
Painfully honest
