when we sat in evenings   counting up the seconds   between the thunder and the lightning   trying to find the distance   the space between what we feel    and what we see   like the distance coming between you and me      so don't be long   don't be long      all we murder and confetti    our science in the holy ghost   the space between is spread and getting strong   distance only grows so don't be long      so don't be long   don't be long       line between getting air and getting gone   these lines get distorted so don't be long      and if youre going   count the seconds up    count the seconds up for me   don't be long
