about

“Far Away to me is that dreamy and romantic moment before a momentous shift in your life. Where you’re revelling in the feelings of excitement and anticipation --dreaming up what is to come while looking back nostalgically on what has been. It’s that more fantastical time before sh*t get real...” -Bay xo

lyrics

lyrics:

I’m a little uncertain
And a little afraid
This thing I had going
It’s slipping away

The good times so golden
Bewitched me to stay
A little bit longer
Than I should’ve done

But hey, anyway
I really will miss this place
It’s mild and mellow taste
It took me quite an age
I will admit to say
But I’m finally going

Out
Beyond where I’ve kept confined
Out beyond this cage of mine
And out to where I’m going
So Far Away

And Oh my,
It really did take me so much time
To lift this veil up from over my eyes
To show me where I’m going
So Far Away
Away

I’m sick of just hoping
To shake the heavy weight
Of sitting here ignoring
This truth now awake

If I don’t leave I won’t leave
And I’ll have left it too late
So go now,
I cast myself away
Go

I really will miss this place
It’s mild and mellow taste
It took me quite an age
I will admit to say
But I’m finally going

Out,
Beyond where I’ve kept confined
Out beyond this cage of mine
And out to where I’m going
So Far Away

And I will hold
These memories of golden times
The shadow lows and idle highs
And I shall take them where I’m going
So far away
Away

We are longing
For the truth
We are still searching
But that’s old news

We are dissolving
But we will move on
Because we are evolving
But that’s old news
That’s old news

Oh sweet meadow you got me
Like a puppeteer you pull at my heart strings

Oh sweet meadow you got me
Who do you think you are

Who do we think we are
