The Distance

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] When we sat in evenings Countin' up the seconds Between the thunder and the lightning Tryin' to find the distance The space between what we feel and what we see Like the distance coming between you and me [Chorus] So don't be long Don't be long [Verse 2] Are we murder and confetti? Are we science and the holy ghost? The space between is spreading and getting strong Distance only grows, so don't be long [Chorus] So don't be long Don't be long So don't be long Don't be long [Post-Chorus] The line between getting air and getting gone These lines get distorted, so don't be long [Bridge] And I feel gutted I count the seconds up I count the seconds, I'm fine Don't be long [Harmonizing Outro]
