Miles Apart
Kainos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think of the mess in my life
All the broken promises
Like miles they pass by
Between Tucson and Phoenix
While stars filled an empty sky
I decided to forget myself
And not even try
Sweet surrender
That's what I'm longing for
Sweet surrender
To make up the distance between us
When we're miles apart
How I have missed your whispers
Your heavenly lullabies
The further away I drift from you
Another part of me dies
Oh to be that close to you
To feel you breathe to hear you speak
Your words shake inside of me
And I don't know what I would do
If you were to ever leave
Where would I be
Where would I be
Sweet surrender
That's what I'm longing for
Sweet surrender
That's what I'm longing for
Sweet surrender
That's what I'm longing for
Sweet surrender
To make up the distance between us
When we're miles apart
"Miles Apart" by Kainos is a song about the feelings of isolation and loneliness that come with distance between loved ones. The singer of the song is driving through a deserted landscape while reflecting on the broken promises in their life that have left them feeling lost and disconnected. The mention of Tucson and Phoenix suggests that the singer is driving through a desert in the Southwest United States, emphasizing the feeling of loneliness and isolation. The imagery of stars filling the empty sky emphasizes the vastness and emptiness of the landscape.
The chorus of the song expresses the singer's longing for a "sweet surrender" that could bridge the distance between them and their loved one, even as they are miles apart. The singer yearns for the comforting presence of their loved one, and fears that the further they drift apart, the more of themselves they will lose. The lines "Your words shake inside of me / And I don't know what I would do / If you were to ever leave" emphasize the singer's vulnerability and dependence on their loved one.
Overall, "Miles Apart" is a poignant reflection on the difficulties of maintaining connections across distance and the yearning for the comfort and support of loved ones, even in difficult times.

As I drive through this wasteland
As I travel through this desolate landscape
I think of the mess in my life
I reflect on the chaos and disorder in my life
All the broken promises
All the unfulfilled commitments
Like miles they pass by
They slip away into the distance like the miles rolling by
Between Tucson and Phoenix
Amidst the expanse between two cities
While stars filled an empty sky
With the starry night sky above me, devoid of any other illumination
I decided to forget myself
I chose to neglect my own concerns
And not even try
And abstain from making any effort
Sweet surrender
An alluring submission
That's what I'm longing for
Is what I crave the most
To make up the distance between us
To bridge the gap that separates us
When we're miles apart
When distance keeps us apart
How I have missed your whispers
How I yearn for the sound of your soft voice
Your heavenly lullabies
The enchanting songs you sing
The further away I drift from you
The more distant I become from you
Another part of me dies
Another part of me withers away
Oh to be that close to you
Oh, to be intimately near to you
To feel you breathe to hear you speak
To sense your respiration and hear your words
Your words shake inside of me
Your expressions resonate within me
And I don't know what I would do
I'm unsure of what to do
If you were to ever leave
If you were to depart my company forever
Where would I be
What would become of me
Sweet surrender
An attractive form of submission
That's what I'm longing for
Is what I yearn for
Sweet surrender
An alluring submission
That's what I'm longing for
Is what I crave the most
Sweet surrender
An enchanting giving up
That's what I'm longing for
Is what I yearn for
Sweet surrender
An appealing forfeiture
To make up the distance between us
To bridge the gap that separates us
When we're miles apart
When distance keeps us apart
