am I very far now?

[aronalle]

it must've been mid afternoon
I could tell by how far
the child's shadow stretched out and
he walked with a purpose
in his sneakers
down the street
he had many questions
like children often do
he said
tell me all your thoughts on god
tell me am I very far

it must've been late afternoon
on our way, the sun broke free of the clouds
we count only blue cars
skip the cracks in the street
and ask many questions
like children often do
we said
tell me all your thoughts on god
cause I would really like to meet her
and ask her why we're who we are
tell me all your thoughts on god
cause I am on my way to see her
so tell me am I very far - am I very far now?

it's getting cold... picked up the pace
how our shoes make hard noises in this place
our clothes are stained
we pass many cross-eyed people
and ask many questions
like children often do

tell me all your thoughts on god
cause I would really like to meet her
and ask her why we're who we are
tell me all your thoughts on god
cause I am on my way to see her
so tell me am I very far?
am I very far now?
am I very far now?
am I very far now?
