"Far From You" lyrics


By: Brett M. Baker
9/11/03

I'm running away from you (but in my mind)<<<<<< You're to damn fast (I cant get away)
I try to block you out (you find another way)
All the things you did (didn't phase me)
There's nothing you can do to (amaze me)

I look into your eyes (I see nothing)
Why did I stay (who f**king Knows).
Now I know the troubles (weren't worth it)
I wish that I knew (a lot earlier)
You treated me like shit (almost all the time)
You made me feel like shit (on the inside)

Chorus

I climbed out on a limb (you cut it down)
So you could watch me fall (I hope its far from you)
I moving on to better things, better people, better situations,
I'm moving to a better place (that better place is far from you).

Chorus

When the fake tears start to fill your eyes (I will not care)
When you need a hug from someone (I will not be there)
When you need a shoulder to lean on (my shoulder; I won't share)
When you need someone to call (don't you even dare)

Chorus 2x w/ fading
