Don't Get Close! Songtext

Somebody give me some light
And not punch it in the dark
Somebody show me the end
And I try to push a start
I'm trying to figure out
A better way, a better answer
glmlfp keh ?mmec
But I keep finding all the problems
I've been looking after

You can't wander through the world
With nothing but a smile
I'll take your tongue for words
And use it to instill denial

[chorus][2x]
Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry, will take you there

Maybe I should look away
Before I ruin this
Maybe I should pick the time
Before I pick the place
I'm into all the things
That you emulate then penalize
But I don't wanna go
Until you learn to finalize

[chorus][2x]
Don't get close
You don't know me
And you'll never know
Chivalry, will get you somewhere
Rivalry, will take you there

You ascertain the plot
My vision's all but shot
I have the best confession
Always scarred for all the lessons
For the quaints and the same time used
Stay out and be infused
I didn't want to be
The undeniable soul of envy

Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close [Better stay away]
Don't get close [Better stay away]
Don't get close [Better stay away]
Don't get close [Better stay away]

I see what's in all the conflicts
Constrict just to fit in, squeeze in,
I can insist, closed fist
Remember? Remember?

You take the breath o life
It never made much sense
I have the worst possession
What I won't put soul in session
Old man and be abused
Because this is so confused
I only want to be
Left alone and rot away

Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close
Don't get close [Better stay away]
Don't get close [Better stay away]
Don't get close [Better stay away]
