So Far Away
Emanny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But then you realize you just left with
Songs about her
What seems so close had to be a no way now
'Til you wake up that one day
And you realize it's (so far away)
So far away (Girl, I can't help it
When I know I should be waitin'
(I should be waitin') but I keep chasin'
(But I keep chasin') you're so far away
A victim of this circumstance (So far away)
And at the end, a victim of your choice
(So far away) but I think it's me and you
(So far away)
Turns out, it truly never was us
And I realized
(Girl, I can't help it
My heart is helpless, So far away
I should be waitin' but I keep chasin'
You're so far away)
(So far away) so far away
(So far away) i keep waitin'
(So far away baby) i realize you're
(so far away) so far away
The lyrics of Emanny's song "So Far Away" depict a sense of longing and desire for someone who is physically and emotionally distant. The first few lines suggest a search for meaning and fulfillment in life, only to realize that the only remnants left are songs about that elusive person. This highlights the depth of the connection and the impact they have had on the singer's life.
The chorus emphasizes the distance between the singer and the person they desire. It conveys a feeling of helplessness and longing, as the heart is unable to let go despite knowing that waiting would be the sensible choice. The repetition of "so far away" emphasizes the magnitude of the emotional and physical separation.
The second verse delves into the realization that the circumstances and choices have played a role in keeping the two apart. The singer acknowledges being a victim of these circumstances but ultimately admits that it was never truly an "us." This realization could be a painful acknowledgment that despite the hope and pursuit, the connection was never reciprocated.
Overall, "So Far Away" explores the theme of unrequited love and the anguish that comes from desiring someone who remains out of reach. It reflects on the emotional turmoil and the realization that sometimes, no matter how much one chases, the distance between hearts remains unchanged.
