    Dayton’s Nick Kizirnis has made a new solo record unlike anything he’s recorded in the past. The Distance has an Americana, Alt-Country feel to it - imagine a cool Chris Isaak record, but with female lead vocals. Kate Wakefield from the band Lung provides brilliant vocals on The Distance, while Kizirnis, along with Crazy Joe Tritschler, Patrick Himes (Bribing Senators, Flyaway Minion), Tod Weidner (Shrug, Motel Beds) & drummer Mark Patterson (Son Volt), adds rich textures throughout the 11 Kizirnis originals and 2 cover songs by Lucinda Williams (Am I Too Blue) and Tom Waits (Take It With Me).

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Distance via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

After You’re Gone
The fire has turned to ashes, there’s nothing to unpack
It’s cold out there almost everywhere, But there’s no turning back
I dreamt I sacrificed my heart, So there was nothing to regret
But the dream was just a dream I guess, Now I can’t make myself forget

Chorus 1
I should feel lucky to have had this love, Now that it’s gone wrong
How could I know what it takes to carry on, After you’re gone, After you’re gone

Out there in the darkness, The place that we fell in love
It was hard to see what was pulling me, But that should have been enough
The wind hissed through the trees that night, like a warning from above
But the wind was just the wind I guess, So there’s no need to be alarmed

Chorus 2
Followed my baby into the lion’s den, But I went down real slow
Nothing to cling to, nothing will linger on, After you’re gone, After you’re gone

Lost out on this broken path, with nowhere left to go
You lost control of your broken soul, where no one else would know
The moon was large and high and bright, you howled at it all night
But the moon was just the moon I guess, So there’s no way to make it right

Chorus 1
I should feel lucky to have had this love, Now that it’s gone wrong
How could I know what it takes to carry on, After you’re gone, After you’re gone
