Lyrics for Song: So Far Away
Lyrics for Album: Nightmare [2010]
Never feared for anything,
Never shamed but never free,
A life that healed the broken heart with all that it could,
Lived a life so endlessly,
Saw beyond what others see,
I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could,
Will you stay...,
Will you stay away forever?,
How do I live without the ones I love?,
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned,
Place and time always on my mind,
I have so much to say but you're so far away,
Plans of what our futures hold,
Foolish lies of growing old,
It seems we're so invincible,
The truth is so cold,
A final song, a last request,
A perfect chapter laid to rest,
Now and then I try to find a place in my mind,
Where you can stay...,
You can stay awake forever,
How do I live without the ones I love,
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned,
Place and time always on my mind,
I have so much to say but you're so far away,
Sleep tight, I'm not afraid,
The ones that we love are here with me,
Lay away a place for me,
'Cause as soon as I'm done I'll be on my way,
To live eternally,
How do I live without the ones I love?,
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned,
Place and time always on my mind,
And the light you left remains but it's so hard to stay,
When I have so much to say and you're so far away,
I love you,
You were ready,
The pain is strong and urges rise,
But I'll see you,
When He lets me,
Your pain is gone; your hands are tied,
So far away,
And I need you to know,
So far away,
And I need you to need you to know

So Far Away
Released on the 2010 album Nightmare, 'So Far Away' stands as a defining track in Avenged Sevenfold's evolution from heavy metal to progressive rock. The song showcases the band's signature blend of melodic guitar work and dynamic vocal delivery, characteristic of their mid-to-late career period. It features intricate time signature shifts and soaring choruses that highlight the group's technical proficiency and emotional depth. As a staple of their discography, the recording exemplifies the band's ability to craft anthemic songs that bridge the gap between traditional metal structures and modern progressive arrangements, solidifying their reputation as innovators within the genre. |
