Miles
Distance Between Heartbeats
Lyrics
You were breaking up
You felt distant or disconnected.
As I was falling down
I was experiencing a downfall or decline.
I was shaken up
I was emotionally disturbed or unsettled.
From the words that left your mouth
The words you spoke caused an impact on me.
Never seemed like enough
Efforts or actions appeared insufficient.
Driving state to state
Traveling extensively from one place to another.
Never face to face
Never having direct interaction or communication.
Load it in, load it out
Continuously handling equipment for a performance.
As the last band plays I am miles away from you
Despite being present physically, mentally distant from you.
Used to see myself in your eyes
I used to see my reflection or identity in your perception.
But it's other guys who had the perfect point of view
Others had a better understanding or perspective of me than you did.
Why can't you see through their lies?
Questioning why you can't see the deceit from others.
Are you hypnotized or are you lying to them too?
Wondering if you're under someone's influence or if you're also deceiving others.
I wouldn't put it past you
Not beyond the realm of possibility for you to deceive.
Never seemed like enough
Actions or efforts still felt inadequate.
Driving state to state
Continuously traveling without meeting face-to-face.
Never face to face
Still lacking direct personal interaction.
Load it in, load it out
Handling equipment or belongings without a meaningful connection.
As the last band plays I am miles away from you
Emotionally distanced while an event or performance is concluding.
I'm miles away from you
Signifying a considerable emotional gap between us.
I'm miles and miles and miles
Emphasizing the vast distance or disconnect.
(And miles) and miles (and miles) and miles (and miles)
Repeated emphasis on the immense emotional gap.
I'm miles away from you
Continued reference to being emotionally distant.
I'm miles (and miles) and miles (and miles)
Further emphasizing the emotional separation.
I'm miles away from you
Continued emphasis on the emotional distance.
I'm miles (and miles) and miles (and miles)
Repeated emphasis on the immense emotional gap.
And miles away from you
Still emotionally far away from you.
And miles and miles and miles
Continued emphasis on the significant emotional distance.
And miles
Reiteration of the extensive emotional gap.
