The Middle Distance Lyrics by JD Eicher

The Middle Distance

2016

[Verse 1]
My sisters and my brothers, mismatched lovers
Openhanded, here I am, here I am
Pictures of each other, one another, and the feelings come again, here I am
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I think it's funny how we happen time-ways and we keep on pushing on past your bones and skin
But the mind doesn't pass it
[Chorus]
You and I, we were better than friends, we're living like strangers
How could we ever be strangers?
I don't know anything stranger
You and I, we were better than this to let it all change us
How could we let it all change us?
Couldn't anything save us?
[Interlude]
This is the middle distance
This is the middle distance, mhm
[Verse 2]
August on the pavement, we were waiting for the storm to finally end, it never ends
Promises were made there, just to fade there
I know I was half the man, but twice the friend
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I think it's funny how we happen time ways, and we keep looking on past the focus shifts
But my mind never passed it
[Chorus]
You and I, we were better than friends, we're living like strangers
How could we ever be strangers?
I don't know anything stranger
You and I, we were better than this to let it all change us
How could we let it all change us?
Couldn't anything save us?
[Bridge]
Where the lines meet, where the paths cross, where the future starts
I have stopped
Where the lines meet, where the paths cross, where the future starts
I am lost
[Pre-Chorus 3]
You and I, we were better than friends, we're living like strangers
How could we ever be strangers?
[Chorus]
You and I, we were better than friends, we're living like strangers
How could we ever be strangers?
I don't know anything stranger
You and I, we were better than this to let it all change us
How could we let it all change us?
Couldn't anything save us?
[Outro]
Ooh (this is the middle distance, this is the middle distance)
My sisters and my brothers, mismatched lovers, open-handed here I am
