Far From Heaven è la decima traccia del quarto album degli Evanescence, The Bitter Truth. It's a piano ballad with swelling strings from David Campbell that almost didn't make it to the album because when the album was originally finished, it had no ballads. It's intuited about Amy Lee's late brother, Robby Lee, who passed away in January 2018.[1] She told Kerrang! in March 2021:

Testo
Give me a reason
Make me whole again
Wounds should become scars
But I'm cracked instead
Can't risk believing
That I would stand a chance
Frozen in the doorway
Don't wanna leave the past
One more night
What I wouldn’t give to be with you for one more night
What if I can't see your light anymore?
'Cause I've spent too long in the dark
And I'm on my knees
Without shame begging to believe,
But I feel so far from heaven
Wake up to a new day
Break my heart again
Dreaming makes for sweet escape
But I can't forget
I'm back at the edge now
I never needed you more
Staring down the emptiness that I can't ignore
All my life
Didn't wanna dream I could lose you
But you just smiled
What if I can't see your light anymore?
'Cause I've spent too long in the dark
And I'm on my knees
Without shame begging to believe,
But I feel so far from heaven
Is anyone out there? Did you give up on us?
Break this silence, I'm crushed under love
I don't wanna lock down, but we've lost so much
Will you forgive me?
If I can't see your light anymore
'Cause I've spent too long in the dark
And I'm on my knees
Without shame begging to believe,
But I feel so far from heaven
I feel so far...
