Far Away

You only come to mind when the sun's down
I guess I've just got so much on my plate
With this distance in-between us for months now
Is your foot pressing down on the brakes
Look at all the layers that made us
Was my absence the blow that would break us
And I don't have all of the answers
To the thoughts that emerge to betray us
And you harboured (All of your emotions)
Until the sky turned (The darkest of hues)
Now you're stranded alone on an island
And I can't find my way there to you
You're

Far away, far away
We're carrying the burden so we both gotta wait
What's the price that we pay
For my words to carry until we're face-to-face
Far away, far away
The shackles that hold us sit firmly into place
I know you're calling from far away

I thought of reaching you on your cell phone
But nothing always gets in the way
I'm the one obstructing the signal
I'm no good at handling change
An aroma of guilt hangs around me
Closer than you've been of late
There's breaking news happening daily
And I don't know who's coming to save me
The world burns (Out of my windows)
Though we act like (We know what to do)
Ashes fall down like your tears on the ground
A reminder we don't have a clue, oh

Far away, far away
We're carrying the burden so we both got a weight
What's the price that we pay
For my words to carry until we're face-to-face
Far away, far away
The shackles that hold us sit firmly into place
I know you're calling from far away
