MAYDAY PARADE LYRICS - So Far Away

"So Far Away"



She's in love

And the world gets blurry

She makes mistakes

And she's in no hurry to grow up

'Cause grownups they don't understand her



Well it's a big, big world out there

But she's not scared

She thinks that nobody cares about her problems

And she's probably right



But it's alright

You'll be fine

If you just stay with me



Whoa oh, whoa oh

We get one step closer but we're still so far away

Whoa oh, whoa oh

It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today



She finds hope in the strangest places

She reads her books

And she knows the faces of everyone

That ever said she's alone



She knows every word to the saddest songs

And she sings along

Though her friends all tell her

That she can't sing



But it's alright

You'll be fine

If you just listen to me



Whoa oh, whoa oh

We get one step closer but we're still so far away

Whoa oh, whoa oh

It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today



She's eighteen

Much too young to know what a kiss like that would mean

But her lips, they weren't no stranger to the touch

And she liked it way too much



She never listened to a word her daddy told her

She finds company with her cigarettes

And feels alone when the sunset...



And please

Don't let this be love

Or can it be enough?

This college town is too small for both of us

So we're running away

We'll pack our bags and take the first train

And we're getting the hell out of here

This place could burn for all we care



(Getting the hell out of here)

This place could burn for all we care

(This place could burn for all we care)

(Getting the hell out of here)

Hold me till then

(This place could burn for all we care)

(Getting the hell out of here)

This place could burn for all we care

(This place could burn for all we care)

(Getting the hell out of here)

Hold me till then

(This place could burn for all we care)



Whoa oh, whoa oh (This place could burn for all we care)

We get one step closer but we're still so far away (Hold me till then)

Whoa oh, whoa oh (This place could burn for all we care)

It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today (Hold me till then)

(Hold me till then)
