Distance Is Everywhere

Geometry breaks down in her tired body reach

She says with a faraway mouth, I'll see you at Easy Beach

We'll walk into the sea until we are who we want to be

Slumped lovely to the floor, distance is constant and sweet's the reach

Mouthing secrets 'til we're sore and we can swim at Easy Beach

Soaked by an overnight storm, there's no trouble keeping warm

Because the reaching is bright, bright gold

The tide of dreams will pull us deep, we search our mouths

For coins to keep, like the reaching, they're bright, bright gold

Oh, our hearts are dented in like tin

City sirens always win, but the reaching never gets old

Oh, who cares if we are scorned, there's a brilliant chaos born

of the reaching

Oh, in love we've come undone

We worship the shadow, we worship the sun

And the reaching can have all it can take

Oh, in love we come undone we get to swim instead of run

We get to swim, for chrissakes

The shoreline of the body is unlit gold

Distance is everywhere and sweet's the reach

So let's meet at Easy Beach

Distance is constant, and so's the reach

So let's swim at Easy Beach

We will swim at Easy Beach
