Jarrod Alonge
The Distance Between You And Me Is Longer Than The Title Of This Song
[Verse 1]
Lost in my thoughts again, I never know what to say
Sitting under the oak tree in my
Front yard playing Pokémon games
We had so much fun doing stuff like that
Pacing metaphorically through the Midwest
My heart drags on the bottom of the ocean
Like a silver fox prancing under the desert sun
I forgot to turn in my homework
[Pre-Chorus]
The summer came to an end
When the autumn leaves fall on the winter grass
You keep pretending
And I’m still sad
Riding down to the Waffle House
On our fixed-gear bikes
I watched the sun rise countless times
I think I lost my library card, I'm still sad!
[Chorus]
This is the last time
I will use your name in a song
And I can’t believe all the time that’s gone by
All the time that's gone by!
This is the last time
That I'll ever hold your hand
Do you remember those
Nights on the front porch
Across from my parents' house
My parents' house! Behind our school
Our school! How can I remember, remember!
Not to cry when I'm so sad
[Post-Chorus]
You’re so dramatic!
[Bridge]
If newborn babies could speak
They would be the most intelligent beings
On planet earth
I only apply to the sixth amendment
Gravity is the
Greatest film of our generation
There is no nutrients
In our food anymore
Or in our soil, or in our water!
When the first animal went extinct
That should've been a sign
How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?
[Outro]
(How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?)
(How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?)
