Further Along, Farther Away

Further along, farther away. Lamenting the distance prevents day to day presence The people, body and mind But heart remains constant no passage of time Could spoil the spirit passing through Even walls ten-thick to break into. They'd all crumble. They'd all crumble with time. I'll defend the fort that's battered through Buttresses that you've been looking to You would crumble. You would crumble inside. Lately I feel we're speaking in tongues Are you starting to feel my smoke in your lungs? And I'm swearing on contract when it's not signed. I'm swearing that safeties in my own mind. Could spoil the spirit passing through Even walls ten-thick to break into. They'd all crumble. They'd all crumble with time. I'll defend the fort that's battered through Buttresses that you've been looking to You would crumble. You would crumble inside.
