"Distance and Guidelines"

Left behind
By my own kind
What am I supposed to do
When I've got everything to lose
And everything to prove

Not the way
I found the day
Why do you keep me in the dark
When I've got everything to lose
Feels like I'm losing my heart

[chorus]
And I'll say
Why
What am I doing wrong
The light I saw on the city hill
Was a fire burning down
Down

Sanctuary
Turned cemetary
Galavanting in the light
Angels masquerading
Leading me to the midnight

Eclipse of a soul
That wants to be whole
But could never get it right
That could never fit into your four walls
Your distance and guidelines

[chorus]
And I'll say
Why
What am I doing wrong
The light I saw on the city hill
Was a fire burning down, down
Why
Am I not the same
If we're all mended by the light
Why do you keep me on the outside?

Light... shine through
Love... find you
Light... shine through
Love
Break through

Why
Why
Don't leave me hanging
Why
Why
Don't leave me, don't leave me...
