Distance - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

The air is thinner as we climb

We only got one destination

Touch the clouds and gravity's edge

And the rest is our momentum

Does it matter if I can't breathe up there?

I got memories of what we began

And you have followed my silhouette

That grows bigger towards the sun

I can see your darkened eyes (I need to know you're here)

And you are still hiding your smile

Take my dismay

Throw it away

When you reach me

Help find the way

Look out for slopes

Down the telescope

And when you reach me

I'll let you stay

How many times do we have to write our names in the sand

So they don't wash away?

How many times do we leave our mark?

I've been worried if you'll be okay

I can travel the world in an instant

Even though there's a fear of the distance

But for you, I know I'll stay

Right here

And I can see your darkened eyes (I need to believe in something)

And you are still hiding your smile

Take my dismay

Throw it away

When you reach me

Help find the way

Look out for slopes

Down the telescope

And when you reach me

I'll let you stay

I don't want to miss you when you're sailing by

Please tell me you're on the way

I don't want to miss you once I've waved goodbye

So when you reach me, tell me you'll stay
