Say Hello

[Verse 1]

I had to pass through the rain clouds three times

To get home

Tilted left and right

Bounced when it hit the ground below

I heard my ragged breath catch in me

I felt my hollow bones

I saw how little time left in me

I knew how much to know

[Chorus 1]

Five-hundred aerial miles to go

My hair and clothes still smell like smoke

And there is no distance long enough

But still the lengths to which we go

Our achievements

And our houses, yeah

And our promises

And hopes

Five-hundred aerial miles to go

[Verse 2]

How else did I think I would find you

But where all of this begun

Squinting hard at the printed word

By the failing light of the sun

We want our wishes to bow to us

But they have a life of their own

Our world has a solitary eye

But I just want to say hello, hello!

[Chorus 2]

Five-hundred aerial miles to go

The earth turns relative and slow

And there is no distance long enough

But still the lengths to which we go

Our beliefs

And our distractions

Our performances

And codes

Five-hundred aerial miles to go

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

I want to tell the girl next to me

That there is no such thing as truth

It is hard to admit you were all wrong

Accept some things are not for you
