The Districts – Long Distance lyrics

Talking through a tin can
I can see your face in the sun with your eyes closed
Stare outside now
Watch the dreams, they slide
Ronnie on the stone, towed me from the ground
Water seeps below
Fits right in my arms
See them smile

Stay out in the sun and watch the dreams
This light reaches her hair
Dead leaves and dirty soil
Smeared between her fingers

Ain’t it strange
To be in love and all
Aw, now, now
Being scared
Spins with my mind
And fills me up
Let me feel you one more time

Being strange
To be in love at all
Now, now
Being scared
Well I thought that sound
Would fill me up
To the dirty ground

Long distance
Slow time
Is it easier?
Aching fears corrupt my mind
Long distance
Reach around and pull away my spine
If it’ll make me feel alright

Talking through a tin can
I can hear the voices around my head
It’s a shame we all become the thing
We didn’t want to see at all

Gimme a minute to control myself
A minute ‘till you’re back down to where you are
Cause I just wanna come
I just wanna get down
Let’s see what this s** really means to me
And the walls, they mock me
They’re the deepest blue of all

Ain’t it strange
To be in love and all
Aw, now, now
Being scared
Spins with my mind
And fills me up
Let me feel you one more time

Being strange
To be in love at all
Now, now
Being scared
Well I thought that sound
Would fill me up
To the dirt in the ground

Long distance
Slow time
Is it easier?
Aching fears crawl up my mind
Long distance
Reach around and pull away my spine
If it’ll make me feel alright

Long distance
Slow time
Is it easier?
Aching fears corrupt my mind
Long distance
Reach around and pull away my spine
If it makes you feel alright

Long distance
Slow time
Is it easier?
Aching fears crawl up my mind
Long distance
Reach around and pull away my spine
If it’ll make me feel alright
