Lyrics Butch Walker

Butch Walker

Far Away From Close

I was set up, from the get-up

And I drove the wrong way home

Into your eyes, of blue

I could barely take my eyes off you

So you set it, then you let it

Slowly take the life from you

Getting so high, from the fumes

Of a burned out so-called you

And I feel so far away from close to you

And maybe

We could try to find a way to walk right through

The plastic wall between my heart and you

You were faking, I'd mistaken

You for someone I once knew

Into the ring, I flew

Like a wrestler falling right on cue

Can you show me, please show me

Why it all went down in flames

Was it 'cause I, made it through

And you were just too fucked up to

And I feel so far away from close to you

And maybe we could try to find a way to walk right through

The plastic wall between my heart and you

Head is stinging, phone is ringing

Words just burn right on my tongue

Please put up the magazine

I'm burning up like gasoline

I'm all alone on the phone

So, baby, won't you please pick up?

And I feel so far away from close to you

And baby

All I wanted was to see you walk right through

And I feel so far away from close to you

And maybe

We can finally find a way to walk right through

The plastic wall between my heart and you

Between my heart and you

Between my heart and
