Pretty Little Distance

I want to cross stitch shut my eyes Wage a war on the world outside Brace the barricade in my mind, but that's alright I stretch the truths 'til they lose shape As support beams bend and break Watch reality's slow cascade, but that's alright And I've been thinking... Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance? I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence? Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance?

I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence?

I watch the sun dry out the grass Hear the silence shatter glass Feel perfection swerve and crash, but that's alright

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance? I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence?

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance? I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence?

Close my eyes, hope it all ends well this time Close my eyes, hope it all ends well this time

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance? I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence?

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance? I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay Why look twice at a beautiful existence?

Ain't life swell from a pretty little distance?
