THE DISTANCE
BatAAr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As I'm filled with questions
"Are you watching too?"
I will never know
Even though the sky is shared by all,
you're past my horizon
I can't put into words
The distance between us
Is too much to bear and I can't stand just being alone
The distance between us
Takes over and leaves me breathless as I feel lost again
Gazing at the sky alone at night
Still without answers
I ignore the silence (of logic)
And my wishes don't mean a thing
The neon lights blur together
Even though I stand still
The unstoppable sound (roars on)
The distance between us
Is too much to bear and I can't stand just being alone
The distance between us
Takes over and leaves me breathless as I feel lost again
The distance between us
Is too much to bear and I can't stand just being alone
The distance between us
Takes over and leaves me breathless as I feel lost again
And as the days pass by,
and as the days pass by us both
All I have are my own guesses
And as the days pass by,
and as the days pass by us both
Will I ever know if you feel the same?
The song "The Distance" by BatAAr is a poignant reflection on the longing that arises from the distance between two individuals. The lyrics express a sense of loneliness and frustration towards the distance that separates the singer from the person they desire. The singer gazes at the night sky and wonders if the person they long for, too, is doing the same. While they recognize that the sky is shared by all, the person they long for is beyond their horizon, and they cannot put into words how much this tears them apart.
The distance feels unbearable, and the singer cannot stand being alone. As they continue to look at the night sky, they remain without any answers. They wish for a connection, but it seems out of reach, just like the neon lights that blur together in front of them. Amidst the unstoppable sound, the singer expresses the urgency with which they long for an end to this distance. As the days continue to pass by, all they have are their own guesses, and they wonder if they will ever find out if the other person feels the same.
Overall, "The Distance" is a relatable song for anyone who has experienced longing and distance in a relationship. The lyrics are evocative and capture the universal feeling of separation, while the music creates an atmosphere of melancholy and yearning.

Gazing at the sky alone at night
Contemplating under the stars, by myself
As I'm filled with questions
I'm troubled by my doubts and uncertainties
"Are you watching too?"
I will never know
"Are you looking at the same sky?" I won't ever find out
Even though the sky is shared by all,
you're past my horizon
I can't put into words
How this tears me apart
Although we look at the same sky, you're far away from me. I can't describe how much it pains me
Still without answers
I ignore the silence (of logic)
I'm still troubled and perplexed. I disregard the reasonable and rational solution
And my wishes don't mean a thing
The neon lights blur together
Even though I stand still
The unstoppable sound (roars on)
My hopes are meaningless. The bright lights blend into one. I'm stationary, but the noise keeps going
And as the days pass by,
and as the days pass by us both
All I have are my own guesses
As time goes on, and goes on for us both, I can only speculate and guess by myself
Will I ever know if you feel the same?
Will I ever find out if you share my feelings?

This song means the world to me. I have a sweet beautiful relationship in Sweden and this song says it all ! We will hopefully see each other as I plan to travel to Sweden at Christmas. This song also connects me to my father who died 5 yrs ago. I was his baby girl and life without him is not happy. But I never let it show on the outside.
