miles away

your whole life you were taken, and never gave, but what there was sold, all your fears and your visions, for all you could hold, there was someone to say, black is white, night is day, and everything's clear, just keep going, and don't look too far, for the burning is near, how far have we come today, i'm here but you're miles away, so you move to the city, grayer skies, never to return, turn your back on your bridges, and watch them all burn, and you run from the pain, but the truth's what remains, strip it all bare, we're all living to breathe, in this wide open sea, how far have we come today, i'm here but you're miles away, i know that you think you can see, from high on your hill, but you're miles away from me, open-arms in this world of belief, can you please tell me where, there is some kind of peace?, i want nothing more than to, feel something real, can you hear them, screaming run?, how far have we come today?, i'm here but you're miles away, how far have we come today, i'm here but you're miles away, i know that you think you can see, from high on your hill, but you're miles away
