So Far Away Lyrics


She's in love
And the world gets blurry
She makes mistakes
And she's in no hurry to grow up
'Cause grownups they don't understand herWell it's a big, big world out there
But she's not scared
She thinks that nobody cares about her problems
And she's probably rightBut it's alright
You'll be fine
If you just stay with meWhoa oh, whoa oh
We get one step closer but we're still so far away
Whoa oh, whoa oh
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life todayShe finds hope in the strangest places
She reads her books
And she knows the faces of everyone
That ever said she's aloneShe knows every word to the saddest songs
And she sings along
Though her friends all tell her

That she can't singBut it's alright
You'll be fine
If you just listen to meWhoa oh, whoa oh
We get one step closer but we're still so far away
Whoa oh, whoa oh
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life todayShe's eighteen
Much too young to know what a kiss like that would mean
But her lips, they weren't no stranger to the touch
And she liked it way too muchShe never listened to a word her daddy told her
She finds company with her cigarettes
And feels alone when the sunset...And please
Don't let this be love
Or can it be enough?
This college town is too small for both of us
So we're running away
We'll pack our bags and take the first train
And we're getting the hell out of here
This place could burn for all we care(Getting the hell out of here)
This place could burn for all we care
(This place could burn for all we care)
(Getting the hell out of here)
Hold me till then
(This place could burn for all we care)
(Getting the hell out of here)
This place could burn for all we care
(This place could burn for all we care)
(Getting the hell out of here)
Hold me till then
(This place could burn for all we care)Whoa oh, whoa oh (This place could burn for all we care)
We get one step closer but we're still so far away (Hold me till then)
Whoa oh, whoa oh (This place could burn for all we care)
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today (Hold me till then)
(Hold me till then)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Why get up in the morning to work at Taco Bell when you could be traveling the continental US pushing your band's fresh new sound to people near and far? Precisely the philosophy of five guys from Tallahassee, FL. Derek, Jeremy, Alex, Brooks and Jake, thinking outside the bun, decided to all quit their jobs and perform in a parade.

Mayday Parade was born in 2005 when two popular Tallahassee bands, Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment, decided to merge and form one group. Both bands had been friends for a long time but they each seemed to have different kind of holdups. They pooled their resources, booted out the undedicated members and decided to take the good from each band and move forward. Armed with a dynamic lead singer Derek Sanders of Defining Moment, Mayday Parade explodes with energy and personality. Fans of both bands came together in support of the Parade and it wasn't long until thousands of other new fans got into the action. Mayday Parade knew they'd have to start at the grassroots level and began to work themselves to the top. Through their catchy tunes and fun attitude, they have hooked fans at their shows and online with an interactive MySpace selling 10,000 EPs without label support.

With the work hard, play hard, do whatever it takes to spread your music philosophy that most young bands need to have these days, the band took to the road and started winning over kids not just in Florida, but across the country. Mayday Parade was consistently in the top 30 unsigned artists on MySpace. They've consolidated over 50,000 friends and growing and have totaled over 2.4 Million plays. With labels hot on their tail, Mayday Parade decided that Fearless Records was the one for them and signed at the end of the summer 2006.

They then released their first professional record, A Lesson In Romantics, in 2007. Shortly after, one of the lead singers/vocalist Jason Lancaster ( lead guitarist/vocalist of Kid Named Chicago) left the band over a songwriting dispute. He then started his own band, Go Radio. There are no hard feelings between the two bands, although Lancaster later commented, "I wish it could have gone down differently."

In 2009, the band released their second album and first without Lancaster, Anywhere But Here.

Mayday Parade's live show also conveys their personality by assuring that they are intensely full of life. The band knows how to put on an engaging show with five energetic members. There's no escaping the energy that Mayday Parade brings. They're all over the stage, making sure the audience goes home happy and wanting more. They love to get the crowd engaged!

In 2011, the band released their third, self titled album.
