Solace

I don't mind, I can play the role
 Oh, so time starts to take its toll
 I'm afraid
 Yeah, you can touch me but I'm out of reach
 I make it look so easy, oh, you would never believe
 One night you caught me scared, we have to dare
 In a crowded room you lean in close to me and said
 Hey, are you there?
 Can you tell me where you are?
 Hey, are you there?
 As time went by, you learnt to lie
 Some could give me more
 But you gave me all you had
 I made for the door
 But you held tight to my hand
 And I still think about it sometimes
 Its like a dream where you're stuck to the ground
 I'm up in the clouds and I don't think I'm coming down
 You look confused as if we never met
 I'm screaming in my sleep, I'm just so inarticulate
 Hey, are you there?
 Can you tell me where you are?
 Hey, are you there?
 As time went by, you learnt to lie
 Some could give me more
 But you gave me all you had
 I made for the door
 But you held tight to my hand
 I know I left you on the shelf
 They say that isolation is so bad for your health
 Like loving someone who cannot love themself
 Like loving someone who cannot love themself
 Someone who cannot love themself
 Someone who cannot love themself
 Someone who cannot love themself
 Someone who cannot love themself
