Stationary
Journey Through Distance: A Tale of Heartache
Lyrics
Let's get some time and distance between us

A little further than the mind can see
Describing the need for a distance beyond what the mind can perceive.
Just give me space to breathe
Requesting personal space and room to breathe.
I'm writing down my memories
The speaker is documenting their memories, possibly as a form of coping or reflection.
But you're so stationary
Highlighting the other person's immobility or lack of change in contrast to the speaker's need for distance.
This is getting heavy and I want nothing more than to see you
Expressing a heavy emotional burden and a strong desire to see the other person despite the distance.
How are things back home when I'm gone?
Questioning the situation at home in the speaker's absence.
It's getting safe to assume that you're alone
Suggesting that it's becoming a predictable pattern for the other person to be alone when the speaker is away.
In the same spot where I left you, but I promise I'll be there soon
Promising a return to the same place where the other person was left, despite the physical distance.
My mind is set, there's no turning back
Expressing determination and commitment with a decision that cannot be reversed.
My heart is lit and my bags are packed
Conveying emotional readiness and preparedness to leave.
You dropped me off in the pouring rain

Then trekked it back to your place

Drunk off boredom and apathy

To have what you have you don't need me

How are things back home when I'm gone?

It's getting safe to assume that you're alone
Reiterating the assumption that the other person is alone when the speaker is not present.
In the same spot where I left you, but I promise I'll be there soon

We give our all to hold onto things we should not miss

But the grip is never enough inside of broken fists

I do not miss
