Verse 1
Well if the wind is her breath then the sun is her glare.
It’s hot and it’s piercing and it burns when you stare.
She gives me shivers and keeps me warm in a daze.
Like the night she fades away.
Chorus
I don’t understand why you have to be constantly distant from me.
Verse 2
There’s a lake somewhere full of her tears
with a sign that says “SWIMMERS BEWARE”.
I hold my breath as long as I can
but her waves crush me again, and again, and again.

What is the meaning behind Distant lyrics?
When we try to understand the message behind it, the band Josh Abbott has released the song titled 'Distant' which among its metaphors includes the wind representing her breath and the sun representing her glare. It shows a situation where the vocalist feels far apart and disconnected from a loved one. The mention of a reservoir full of her weeping and waves breaking the singer symbolizes the overpowering feelings and difficulties involved in the effort to reach out to the remote person. The lyrics of Distant mostly revolve around sadness, anger, hopelessness, love, and contemplation. Nevertheless, the song underlines the significance of the miles and the emotional struggle in the same breath. The words offer some adult-like themes concerning the lack of emotional closeness and yearning, which might not be properly understood by little kids without the parents' guidance. But still, there are no strong words, no fights, and no explicit content. ✔️
