[Verse 1]

Longest distance, length of time

Never said that this was easy

Commonsense, left behind

Got myself to drive

[Chorus]

This distance is killing me

Dropped line and I'm losing my mind

Everything's perfect, everything's fine

Why can't I shake this feeling?

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark

We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

[Verse 2]

Too many hours, too many miles

I swear to you I'll count the days

Drifting further, further away

So many things, wish I could say

[Chorus]

This distance is killing me

Piece of static just saved my life

One last night, just one last time

Hope I can keep this going

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark

We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

[Bridge]

Lost connection, oh, lost connection

Under the darkest skies, I swear I hate goodbyes

Lost connection, oh, lost connection

No matter how I try, I swear I hate goodbyes

Left and leaving, left behind

Do my best to keep this working

Tired of waking, waking up tired

Dead brain, driving me insane

[Chorus]

This distance is killing me

Despise, I curse every sunrise

Out of reach, just out of touch

Only thing I know for certain

Alive in the daylight, alone in the dark

We'll always only ever be an ocean apart

I hate this ocean

I hate these skies

Oh my darling I just hate goodbyes
