So Far So Long
Journey Through Time: Nightlands' Reflection on Longing
Lyrics
So far so long.
Expressing a sense of distance or duration.
We’re making up the words
Creating lyrics spontaneously or improvising.
to our own song.
Crafting a personal narrative or story through music.
Too long long gone.
Referring to a prolonged absence or elapsed time.
If it’s never been turned off,
Raising a question about the possibility of restarting something.
can it be turned on?
Contemplating the potential revival of a situation or emotion.
Too long, too long,
Reiterating the theme of prolonged absence or elapsed time.
too long gone.
Emphasizing the extended duration of being apart.
If it seems so far,
Pondering the perceived distance and the act of bidding farewell.
do we say so long?
Raising a rhetorical question about saying goodbye when something seems distant.
So far so long.
Reaffirming a sense of being distant or separated for a prolonged period.
I’m taking off the tops
Metaphorically describing a personal revelation or self-discovery.
of my own eyes.
Symbolizing a metaphorical unveiling or gaining new perspectives.
Too long long gone.
Recalling a prolonged absence or time elapsed without a return.
I was right about the place
Reflecting on being in the right place but at an inopportune moment.
at the wrong time.
Expressing a sense of timing being a factor in life experiences.
Too long, too long,
Reiterating the prolonged duration of separation or absence.
too long gone.
Emphasizing the extended period of being apart from someone or something.
If it seems so far,
Pondering the perception of distance and the act of bidding farewell.
do we say so long?
Raising a rhetorical question about saying goodbye when something seems distant.
