So Far Away
Gabriel Brown & Michelle Creber Lyrics

Early morning sunlight is beating down
The sun is rising and shining down on the surroundings

Upon the barren trees and the frozen ground
The trees are bare and there is a layer of frost on the ground

It′s a new day and yet I feel the same
Although it's a new day, the singer feels the same as before

Once again I do what I have done for years
The artist is stuck in a routine they have been doing for years

Trying to forget and fighting back the tears
The artist is struggling to forget something and is trying not to cry

And I just can′t help but wonder (As tomorrow fades away)
The singer is wondering as the prospect of tomorrow becomes less and less clear

Why this is pulling me down (And yesterday remains)
The singer is feeling weighed down by something from the past that is still present

I can't pretend for much longer (And I know I'm not the same)
The artist can't keep up a facade for much longer and knows they have changed

Where can the answers be found?
The artist is searching for answers

It all just seems so far away...
The answers seem distant and unattainable

It doesn′t feel right, how can it be right
The singer is questioning the validity of their current situation

Don′t wanna be alone and yet I'm drawn away by something I can′t explain
The artist doesn't want to be alone but is being pulled away by something inexplicable

If this is real life, how can this be my home
The singer questions whether their current situation is really their true home

My heart aches for these answers that I pray exist
The singer yearns for answers they hope exist

Shadowed by the comfort of ignorance
The singer is blinded by their own ignorance and complacency

Do I belong here or am I meant for more
The artist is questioning their sense of belonging and purpose

It is all so big and I am so small
The artist feels insignificant in the grand scheme of things

If it's possible to understand it all
The singer is contemplating the possibility of understanding everything

Why do I stay here, what am I waiting for
The singer questions why they remain in their current situation and what they are waiting for

It may not feel right, but this is our life
The artist acknowledges that this is their life, even if it doesn't feel right

And we are not alone though we are drawn away by something I can't explain
The artist knows that they are not alone, even if they feel pulled away by something inexplicable

And we will carry on because we long to know the things that we can't explain
The artist will persevere in order to learn what they currently don't understand

It all just seems so far away...
The answers still seem distant and difficult to attain
