With Distance Lyrics

Distance - time and space
The chasm between
What is and was
Allows me to find
Nothing
Distance - like newfound faith
Can come between
What is and was
Allows me to find
Everything
Silence is needed, golden, broken
As I trek into the woods
I must press on
To find something, anything
Distance
Benign
I have become
A brother to dragons
And a companion to owls
My lyre also is turned
To mourning
And my organ to the voice
Of them that weep
And so the mountains become
A lodestone
The forest an escape
An albatross will be laid down
With distance
Silence
Nothing
Everything
