Distance Lyrics by Effi

Astronaut

2010

Small blank paper planes
Head into the rain
And crash next to my feet

Word pour from the wall
And drain off under doors
Stainlessly I'm trapped

Pointless balladry
And broken monody
Can't fill the gaps you left
And so I'm staying here
Waiting for the day to clear
Of all illusion and confusion
Messing with my morning sun

This distance is killing me
Cause the files we share
Got lost somewhere, somewhere

This distance is killing me
Well thought out replies
Will meet your eyes no more

This distance is killing me
And all mending moans
Will reach soft tones no more
No more, no more

Time, time, time machine
Buried in between
The lines of every post
I'm waiting for my remedy
While twitters, twitters tragedy
Technology can't bring us back
I can't say that I'm all in
I can't say that I'm down, no
It's just more that
I can't stand
All illusions
To a non-conclusion
You're wasting in the morning sun
This distance is killing me
Cause the files we share
Got lost somewhere, somewhere

This distance is killing me
Well thought out replies
Will meet your eyes no more

This distance is killing me
And all mending moans
Will find a home no more

This distance is killing me
And my clumsy steps
Will trace your tracks no more
No more, no more

Words dry up, oh
In my lungs just then
Tears run dry without no consequence
From now on I plan on sleeping in
Dream until I am mundane again
I don't wanna play this game
So drop my heart and erase my name

This distance is killing me
Cause the files we share
Got lost somewhere, somewhere

This distance is killing me
Well thought out replies
Will meet your eyes no more

This distance is killing me
And all mending moans
Will find a home no more

This distance is killing me
And my clumsy steps
Will trace your tracks no more
