So far away
The Rocket Summer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Try until you finally say you're watching this whole town
You're making my heart bleed, it shows it by your frown
And I'm already sure that money you will listen and I will be the same

It's time to wait for her
Choking on six silly ways
Made my seats hit the way
Now we feel there will be another day ride

Now it's time
I've come to clear my mind
The same same old way back until you come

You're so far away
You're so far away back from this Sunday
(So far away)
You're so far away you're so far behind don't see this Sunday

Through the days I'm wrecked cause I don't know myself
Through the days I'm wrecked cause I don't know myself
Through these moments I'll keep rocking to these lies
So from here we'll make another lie
To make you there to make you mine

Time it kills me everyday just asking you to stay
Just trying to find my way, it happens everyday
I'm reaching to the stars, I'm reaching to the sky
My mind it fades away

I'm sick today for her
Choking on six stupid ways
Made my seats hit the way
Now we feel there will be another day ride

Now it's time
I've come to clear my mind
The same same old way back until you come

You're so far away
You're so far away back from this Sunday
(So far away)
You're so far away you're so far behind don't see this Sunday

Through the days I'm wrecked cause I don't know myself
Through the days I'm wrecked cause I don't know myself
Through these moments I'll keep rocking to these lies
So from here we'll make another lie




To make you there to make you mine
Alright

Overall Meaning

The song "So Far Away" by The Rocket Summer is a contemplative piece that reflects on the distance between two people in a relationship. The opening lines suggest that the person being addressed is watching the entire town and making the singer's heart ache, which is visible on their face. Despite this, the singer believes that they will eventually listen to each other and come to a common understanding. The chorus of the song repeats "you're so far away" several times, emphasizing the idea that the person is unreachable and the distance between them is vast. In the second verse, the singer speaks about being wrecked because they do not know themselves, and they try to reach the stars but are held back by their fading mind. The singer and the person they address strive to make it so they can be together, which requires them to confront lies they have told.


Overall, the song delves into the concept of distance and the struggle to overcome it, both physically and emotionally. The use of repetition in the chorus of "you're so far away" reinforces the idea of the gap between the two, while the verses explore how they are working to bridge that gap, both internally and externally.
