Far Away

Hello again, it's me, the fool on the hill

Life here ain't so bad

My friends are tired, their lives are wasted

Just like their moms and their dads

And they don't know what I am talking about

And they may never know

I'm just fourteen, but I know where I stand

Behind these walls, life ain't so easy

But it's turned me into a man

Sometimes I don't know what I am talking about

And I may never know

Far away, the cool taste of reality

Far away, perfect little family

Far away, the little boy I used to be

Look at my eyes, maybe they'll show you the truth

The truth I cannot see

Once in a while I catch a glimpse of it all

But it slips away from me

Someday I'll know what's going on in my head

For now, I'll just stay here

Far away, the cool taste of reality

Far away, perfect little family

Far away, the little boy I used to be

Far away

I hate it when they look right through you

It sends me into a rage

I know I ain't crazy, and I don't need your proof

I just need out of this cage

Hello again, it's me, the fool on the hill

Life here ain't so bad
