Long Distance Lyrics

I like cold mornings
They keep me sharp
Forget the rain
Forget the car
And leave behind all communication

All the pieces
In front of me
I have this place
All to myself
I'm not asking much
Just a little space for my head

I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way

A simple lake
Dirt tracks for days
I'm breathing clean
My eyes feel bathed
I've hit the wall too many times now

I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way

I start today
I start today
I start today
I start today

I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy)

All the pieces

I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way

My eyes feel bathed
I've hit the wall too many times now

I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way
I start today, I drive the other way

I start today
I start today
I start today
I start today

I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy, it doesn't make me sorry)
I start today, I drive the other way
(and if it makes you happy)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's about someone who, rather than going about their normal day, ie. office/school/factory/etc, decides to drive out to the countryside and get some peace. Basically, it's about nature vs the modern world. The last chorus is just perfect.
