lyrics

DISTANCE

(Verse1)
I might just be a serpent that's drowning in a basket
The feeling is fantastic, I'm choking and I'm gasping
No questions to be asking, I do not know what's happening
Confined by elastics in a prison made of plastic
Ecstatic in the attic, still happy to be average
I payed my rights of passage, feeling massive but I'm passive
Ignoramus that are famous dance to challenges of savage
Yes I try to manage my damage and compassion
Don't ask me what plan is, I'm pissed and too demanding
Outlandish and abandoned, Found my bandages in canyons
My Mind's always expanding, understanding space and landings
The little Prince is standing on a planet, no companions
At least I can Imagine, the beast is also captive
Analyzing all his actions in a tragedy of satin
Like Manhattan needs to flatten the status of the blackened
My dreams are soft Assassins in a river that is passing...

(Chorus)
Distance, distance, it's our new existence
Assimilate to Systems, forgetting what we're missing
Listen, Listen, Obey with no resistance
Reality is twisting and Fear is in Statistics

(Verse2)
I fill the gas up to the temple in the hopes to touch my mental
My words are monumental and these times are instrumental
Condescending and parental, everyone is so judgmental
Listen dude, I am Cool, follow rules... Governmental
Existential in the crisis, face opinions that are Bias
Compromises like believing that all terror comes from Isis
Symbolizing that the devil becomes holy in devices
Spreading virus like the news is leaking clues of sacrifices
Also Crying, I have Fears and my tears are cold and tired
Next is Silence, aggravation, bursting flames, fully fire
I Aspire to connect all the wires of my higher
Used to Love Her, then retired, used to Using amplifiers
Just to hide them, my emotions are imploding with corrosion
(Breath X2)
in the ocean, when the wind blows it is broken
Planting roses for the choosen, please forgive me for a moment
I have spoken with a poem full of chaotic Enjoyments...

(Chorus)
Distance, distance, it's our new existence
Assimilate to Systems, forgetting what we're missing
Listen, Listen, Obey with no resistance
Reality is twisting and Fear is in Statistics
