Time And Distance

Sator · Other Songs - Sator

What is broken can be fixed they say

But I don't think it really works that way

And I don't need another lesson learned

When you get too close you know that you're gonna get burned



I don't think you've seen the best of me

You say I always shake the hand that feeds

I'm out of here there's nothing you can do

'cause I feel like a drowning fly in a rich man's soup



It's gonna take time and distance

Lies, denial and resistance

Time and distance

I need all the assistance I can find

To get it off my mind



I don't wanna see the bitter end

I just don't have that much time to spend

I can't stay life is too short

I'm still going somewhere and you're not



It's gonna take time and distance

Lies, denial and resistance

Time and distance

I need all the assistance I can find

To get it off my mind



I've seen the empire fall like a rotten fruit.

I'm outta here it's time for new recruits

And I don't need another lesson learned

When you get that close you know that you're gonna get burned



It's gonna take time and distance

Lies, denial and resistance

Time and distance

I need all the assistance I can...

Time and distance

Lies, denial and resistance

Time and distance

I need all the existence I can find

To get it off my mind

Time And Distance

Sator's 'Time And Distance' stands as a quintessential example of the genre's raw, unpolished aesthetic. Emerging from the underground scene of the late 1980s, the track embodies the era's signature blend of aggressive vocals and distorted instrumentation. While often associated with the broader catalog of works like 'Slammer!' or 'Basement Noise,' this specific recording captures a moment of intense emotional volatility that defined the movement. The song reflects the DIY ethos of the time, prioritizing visceral impact over technical perfection. It remains a significant piece in the history of this subgenre, illustrating how early electronic and noise music pushed boundaries through sheer sonic intensity and unfiltered expression.
