Far Away
José González Lyrics
Step in front of a runaway train just to feel alive again
Pushing forward through the night, aching chest and blurry sight
It's so far, so far away
It's so far, so far away
Cold wind blows into the skin
Can't believe the state you're in
It's so far, so far away
Who are you trying to impress, steadily creating a mess?
Step in front of a runaway train, just to feel alive again
Pushing forward through the night, aching chest and blurry sight
Aching chest and blurry sight, aching chest and blurry sight

Whoever thought of adding this song to the transition into Mexico in RDR deserves a fucking medal.

That moment in the game where you ride slow to enjoy the song....then you get attacked by a pack of wolves, your horse gets killed, you kill off the wolves using your Dead Eye, then your walking after you skin the wolves you kill. Next thing you know the song is about over and youre standing there like "what the fuck just happened?" Proceed to whistle for another horse, continue your journey...lol
Dietrich Kaufmann

Yeah it was pretty cool. I thought the game started to really pick up that point. Great song as well.
