A Distant Life Songtext

I pack 'em tight on my chest
Leaving home again kills
I kiss your head like a crest
Look twice into my own mirror
On second glance at myself
Cut the tension with scissors
I'll leave them up on the shelf

The price we pay for connection
In a distant life

The salt taste of your mouth
The small pockets of love
The moment I catch you
Come on top like a dove
The price we pay for connection
In a distant life
The chance of making a living
Or loving night after night
With all that said
No word's in vain
A distant love
Is worth its weight in pain
And I'm [?] my promise
I'll call your name

The salt taste of your mouth
The small pockets of love
The moment I catch you
Come on top like a dove
The price we pay for connection
In a distant life
The chance of making a living
Or loving night after night

We're alright
