Lyrics for Distance Is Darkness as interpreted by Aerion

Distance Is Darkness Lyrics
the contingencies of a day unravel my senses
and now your distance is darkness
my hope has been beset by your absence
i decay from inside
underneath it all there is still life
despite it all there is still love

The part where he growls,"I decay from inside", is one of the best vox I have ever heard.

This is my fav AILD song. It shows that Tim Lambesis has one hell of a vocal range. That's why he's one of my favorite songs.

But its about having a crush on a girl who doesn't seem to notice him. It's either that, or a girlfriend who seems to be growing appart.

I dont think it has anything to do with a crush on a girl. I think it has to do with the love he feels for christ and what it is like when you don't feel his love in your life.

i also immediately thought that this song was about christ and his faith despite feeling abandoned for a period of time

Sounds like he's screaming:

"[screams]pain...there is love, there is love, there is love...[screams]love - there is love, there is love...underneath there is love"

If that's wrong (got a nagging feeling that it is), doesn't matter, it still sounds incredible.

this song, like most of As I Lay Dying's is about Tim's relationship with God. It clearly about a point in time when he turned away from God, perhaps in anger "losing his senses" but that only brought him more misery. Beneath all the misery that came, when he came back he still found love.

If it's even possible or makes sense when written, i think this was the first time i've ever heard melodic screaming. . .
