Trying to drag a person down proofs that you are already below them.

8 letters
Why don't we

It was all just silent along the way back to the cabin. You have questions but he has no answers for you, instead, he has many questions for himself.

Play the music here

   The house was quiet, other than the sound of the sea there was just silent.

You know me the best.
You know my worst, see me hurt, but you don't judge.
That, right there, is the scariest feeling.

   The both of you avoided each other inside under the same roof.

Opening and closing up again
I've been hurt so I don't trust.
Now here we are, staring at the ceiling.

   On the same bed the two of you don't talk and just stood there, listening to the silent, looking at the darkness.

I've said those words before but it was a lie.
And you deserve to hear them a thousand times

   Peter laid there wondering.

If all it is is eight letters,
Why is it so hard to say?
If all it is is eight letters,
Why am I in my own way?

    He looked at you and thought to himself.

Why do I pull you close,
And then ask you for space?
If all it is is eight letters,
Why is it so hard to say?

   The problem was he loved you, but every time when it comes to a dream, he always chose his own. Selfish? Yes, he won't deny it, he's a sucker for fame for he knows it will at least keep him alive if one day everyone abandons him.

   Peter got up from the bed and went to the studio, he had to write it down.

Isn't it amazing how almost every line on our hands align.
When your hand's in mine.
It's like I'm whole again, isn't that a sign?
I should speak my mind.

   But he said those words before but it felt like a lie. And you deserve to hear them a thousand time.

If all it is is eight letters,
Why is it so hard to say?
If all it is is eight letters,
Why am I in my own way?

   And he wrote it down with his guitar and recorded the song into his phone that night.

Why do I pull you close
And then ask you for space?
If all it is is eight letters
Why is it so hard to say?

   He can't abandon his dreams, not even for you, and he wishes he could fix that but at the moment he couldn't.

   And even though,

When I close my eyes,
It's you there in my mind.
When I close my eyes.

  He still couldn't find an answer.
