each night I feel the distance that has groen between us
open up as lonely as the space between the stars
I wish that I could find a way
to smash my fist right through these walls
of ugliness and emptiness
and gently touch your face
but every time that I touch you
you feel so far away
as you lie silently beside me choking back your tears
I wonder if you recognize
that silence now defines us
desperately I try to fight this overwhelming sense
that I may never find
the strength to change
how hopeless we've become
we need to find a way to break this silence
we need to find a way to break this silence that's between us
so I scream your name
but every time that I touch you
you feel so far away
and every time that you need me
I feel so far away
and every time that you reach out
you feel me pull away
and every time that I touch you
you feel so far away
