By Your Side

See myself in a screen
Wasting days, counting weeks
Getting more familiar with how you speak
While you're away from me

But I don't want to say goodbye
Because it's safer when I'm by your side
I want to be near you
Like I'm meant to

But hey
I think it's going to be alright
When we're sleeping and I'm by your side
I want to learn to fly
But it's safer when I stay inside

I want you
But the monster
Won’t let me
Escape here
