Farther Away

General Information

Sometimes incorrectly known as Further Away. Recorded as a demo in 2001-2002 and later made into a B-side on the Bring Me to Life single. Performed live regularly during the many legs of the Fallen tour, which has spanned a year and a half.

When performed live, back in 2003, Ben Moody would hand his guitar over to a stage hand close to the end of the song and go into a tribal drum solo. This can be seen in the Live in Cologne performance.

Lyrics

Farther Away - Fallen Outtake

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief, a whore, and a liar

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I’m numb to you
Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you, not love, just nothing

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

Tried to forget you
But without you
I feel nothing

Don’t leave me here
By myself
I can't breathe

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away

Farther Away - Demo 2002 version

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief, a whore, and a liar

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I’m numb to you
Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you, not love, just nothing

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

Don’t leave me here
By myself
I can't breathe

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up, giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
