[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]
