Distance
Lost In The Light Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Were we always meant to be so far apart?
So far apart
I've come too far to be told that I've fallen
That I have fallen short again
We've come too far to be told that we've fallen
That we've fallen, fallen short again
Distance between us has grown so far
Just walk away, just walk away from everything
We're not the same, I'm not the man I used to be
I'm afraid to face myself again
How can I stray from the man I've become
I always thought you seemed so far away
But the truth is there's nothing between you and me
Distance between us has grown so far
Were we always alone, or can it be restored
Just walk away, just walk away from everything
We're not the same, I'm not the man I used to be
Why do I stand where there's nothing for me
Will you watch as a fall or would you save me
I am afraid to face what should never ever be
Just walk away, just walk away from everything
We're not the same, I'm not the man I used to be
Just walk away, just walk away from everything
We're not the same, I'm not the man I used to be
The lyrics of "Distance" by Lost In The Light are a reflection of the emotional turmoil caused by a growing distance between two people in a relationship. The singer questions whether this distance was always there or whether it has grown with time. He acknowledges his shortcomings and is afraid to face himself again, afraid to see the man he has become.
Despite their growing distance, the singer realizes that the truth is that there is nothing between him and his partner. They can restore their closeness once again if they both decide to walk away from everything that has caused them to drift apart. He asks his partner whether they will watch him fall or save him.
The overall message of the song is about the importance of communication and the willingness to work on a relationship. The singer realizes that he can't just walk away from everything, and that it's time to face his fears and confront the issues that are driving them apart. The distance between them can be overcome if they're both willing to make the effort.
