...and the Distance Lyrics


We tried, we fought, we lost

We cried, we saw it fall...

We lost this game to forgiving needs

Carve the wound until it bleeds

You’re keeping your distance

You’re pushing me away

You’ve never let me say the words I want to say

Our time here has withered

Our circumstances changed

‘Cause you never let me say the words I want... to say...

You’re keeping your distance

You’re pushing me away

You’ve never let me say the words I want to say

Our time here has withered

Our circumstances changed

‘Cause you never let me say the words I want...

Too close to edge and we are down

We are shattered

Still we strive to rise again against the will that push us under

The surface of pride and hope

And through the roof that holds the rope

(Too close to end and we are down)

(We are shattered)

(Still we strive to rise again against the doubts that held us under)

(The surface where light brings hope)

(And through the dark that kept us closed)

Resist the will that push us under

Resist the will that push us under
