Too Far
Navigating Love's Distance: Leo Critchfield's 'Too Far' Reflections
Lyrics
Feeling so confused
Expressing a state of emotional turmoil or lack of clarity.
I looked out my window thinking of you
Reflecting on thoughts of someone significant while looking out the window.
I thought that we were meant to be
Believing in the idea of a destined connection with the person in mind.
But the hardest parts are the ones we never think to see
Acknowledging that the most challenging aspects of relationships are often unexpected or hidden.
I think that I'm fine here
Claiming to be okay in the current situation.
And I'll be fine without you
Asserting independence and the ability to cope without the person.
As long as you know I'll be here if your plans fall through
Offering support if the other person's plans fail, indicating a lingering connection.
Because I know
Awareness of the difficulty in the situation.
It's too hard
Emphasizing the hardship of the impending separation.
We'll be too far away
Anticipating being physically distant in the future.
And I didn't know what I was doing
Regret for engaging in something without a clear resolution.
Starting something that I couldn't finish
Acknowledging an inability to complete or conclude a significant action.
Told myself it was all in the distance
Convincing oneself that the issue is distant and can be ignored.
Pushed it back in my mind
Suppressing or avoiding the problem mentally.
Now I've lost track of time
Having lost track of the passage of time, possibly due to neglecting the issue.
Thinking of you
Continuing to think about the person, despite the emotional difficulty.
It gets harder every time I do
Expressing the increasing emotional challenge of thinking about the person.
Because we talk like nothing's gonna change
Noting the contradiction between unchanged conversation and an impending major change.
But a few days from now I'll be gone far away
Acknowledging the inevitability of being physically distant in the near future.
I think that I'm fine here
Reiterating a sense of personal well-being without the person.
And I'll be fine without you
Asserting independence and the ability to cope without the person.
As long as you know I'll be here if your plans fall through
Offering support if the other person's plans fail, indicating a lingering connection.
But I know
Reiterating the awareness of the difficulty in the situation.
It's too hard
Emphasizing the hardship of the impending separation.
We'll be too far away
Anticipating being physically distant in the future.
And I didn't know what I was doing
Regret for engaging in something without a clear resolution.
Starting something that I couldn't finish
Acknowledging an inability to complete or conclude a significant action.
Told myself it was all in the distance
Convincing oneself that the issue is distant and can be ignored.
Pushed it back in my mind
Suppressing or avoiding the problem mentally.
Now I've lost track of time
Having lost track of the passage of time, possibly due to neglecting the issue.
