Far Away Lyrics

Far Away lyrics

7:30 am nurse the baby on the couch



then the phone rings



"Turn on the T.V."



watch the world explode in flames



and don't leave the house



And the sky overhead



is silent, waiting



Clear blue holds its breath



And the heart is hit



in a city far away



but it feels so close



Don't breathe the air today



Don't speak of why you're afraid



(Standing here on a one way road



and I fall down,



no other direction for this to go



so we fall down)



WHY CAN'T I GET ALONG WITH YOU?



And the president hides



while working men rush in



To give their lives



I look to the sky



and ask it not to rain



On my family tonight
