Distance Unwritten Sentenced To silence The air we breathe Bring fear In the hearts of men There and then Let me live In the hearts of my men Let me live In my mother’s den The hourglass broke Grain of sand The distance dealt Cards in my hand The promised land
I long and I belong and I miss being missed How your absence filled, filled our world I long for a place where the children don’t cry Everyone is still and time passes by
Here to withstand The grain of sand Eyes to the ground Distance maintained In tongues Unkind Withdrawn Your hand
