Distance Lyrics by The Firebird Band

The Drive

2001

American whiskey
To kill the sting of this city's streets
To keep the chill from her bones
To keep from getting old
In the West it's the same
In the East it's the same
Just like you
Dancing and drinking while you
Cry in the mirror again
Everything in your house
You pay for the distance that you feel
You pay for the distance that you feel
Playing with fire and walking on water
That one's got some problems
American whiskey
The sting of this city's streets
The chill from her bones
And shaking uncontrolled
The West it's the same
The East it's the same
They're just like you
You cry in the mirror again
Pins through you hands while you sleep
Catching dreamers so we dream in the day
Playing with fire and walking on water
That one's got some problems
I will do what I will do
Never ever listen to you
Wear you out like you wear me out
I will do what I will do
Never ever listen to you
Wear you out like you wear me out
That's the difference
There's the distance in that look
Don't call me
Don't call me, I don't want to know how you are
Don't call me
Don't call me, I don't want to know how you are
Don't call me
Don't call me, I don't want to know how you are
