As Far Away As Amsterdam Songtext
I cut myself climbing the fence,
On the sharpened corners of my new-found arrogance
Small hearts form from the blood that poured, but I just ignored them
To my undying credit, I was not distracted
Which is not to speak ill of how you've all reacted
It's just injury and honesty, metaphor and simile
It's just how it occurs to me, so don't judge me too harshly

And you've committed yourself in your way
Just someone you need nothing from, you say it gets you through the day
And how the hollow shell of a man to sleep next to
He doesn't even rouse you when he leaves
As he rises to go I wonder what crosses his mind
Then alluding to such things seems unkind
I feel like it's my right and I may sleep alone in the night
But at least I can tell you why

And at your convenience we can meet
If I'm staring you down as you walk up the street
Well I've got my reasons
