Near/Far - Death Cab for Cutie

You flicker like a fluorescent light

An intermittent strobe in a lonely night

As I am standing by your side

Trying to breach this dark and deep divide

You’re here

So far away

So near

So far

I hear you talking to yourself

Cursing every card you wanted dealt

But I can’t help you play your hand

If you mistake every word for a command

You’re here

So far away

So near

So far away

You’re here

So far away

So near

So far

You flicker like a fluorescent light

An intermittent strobe in a lonely night

But I won’t watch you burning out

I won’t let you be the one I live without

You’re here

So far away

So near

So far
