Too Far Away
By Eight Legged Oedipus
(C) 2006 Pure Greed Records

"It's so small"

He's like a needle in a haystack, baby
He's like a needle in the hay
If you wanna roll in that hay
I suggest you get yourself something to play with

Baby, I know I didn't treat you right
That black eye wasn't justified
Catch my drift I'm the tide
And he's the ripples and your ship won't rock from side to side

Remember when we saw the totem poles
And then you took a photo of me standing tall
Compare that to a drinking straw
That's the kind of difference that we're talking about

He's like a needle in the haystack, baby
He's like a needle in the hay
He's like a needle in a haystack, baby
Even up close it looks far away

I spoiled you, baby, didn't I?
I left no chance for the little guy
I don't want you to spit and cry
So if you're not satisfied call my number any time

Like a midget versus Patrick Ewing
This fool don't know what he's doing
I'm sorry if you're totally ruined
But a size 2 foot won't fit a size 20 shoe any more

Like a needle in a haystack, baby
He's like a needle in the hay
He's like the needle in a haystack, baby
Even up close he looks far away

Too far away for you
Too far away for you
Too far away for you
Even up close he looks far away to you

Too Far Away - Bell Green


Now all that I wanted is too far away
Where I can't touch you, I can't feel you
And I was hoping you'd stay.

Now all that I wanted is too far away
Where I can't see you, I can't hear you
As you're fading away.

'Cos I wanted to tell you that you're always welcome
I wanted to tell you today
I wanted to tell you that you could stay over
I wanted to tell you again.

Now all that I wanted is too far away
I'm one and only, I'm feeling lonely
And I need you to play

Now all that I wanted is too far away
My life is hollow, it's hard to swallow
Like a dark rainy day.

But I'll always remember what you left behind
I'll always remember your smile
I'll always remember that you were my friend
I'll always remember your smile.

Why did you leave when it was just getting better?
We could have worked all of this out together
Why did you go somewhere so far away?
Why did you turn my blue sky to grey?

Now all that I wanted is too far away
Where I can't touch you, I can't feel you
And I was hoping you'd stay.
'Cos I wanted to tell you that you're always welcome
I wanted to tell you again.

i don't want you to love me
just rub me and make me real
i just want you to [explective removed] me
but you're too far away

too far away
noah mclaughlin

how can my light reach you
the shadow of your biterness
can my love teach you
the silence of your hollowness
where do you sleep nightly
the forest of your empty tears
how do you sleep lightly
running from your fears

never have i ever seen a ghost so gone, a voice so keen
never will the singing cease, every note a waking feast

light can never touch me
i am much too far away
love can never teach me
silence keeps your word at bay
i lie with hemlock daughters
come and sip the bitter dew
i sleep in lethe's waters
come and drink dear charon's brew

never have i ever seen a ghost so gone, a voice so keen
never will the singing cease, every note a waking feast

so far away, too far away
so close, so close; i can touch you

Too Far Away

Yea, yer the cock of the walk, ain’t you? The way you strut your stuff
Thanks but, uh, I think I’ve had enough—of the
Blah blah blah and the me me me
me me me me me
If a tree fell in the forest and you didn’t comment I
don’t think I’d hear a sound.
It’d just land softly on the ground. that’s why I
Need you around to set me right each and every night—
and that’s why I want to tell you

CHORUS
I’d hunt you down but you’re Too Far Away
I’d grind you down but you’re Too Far Away
Too far away I wouldn’t ever come back
Living in your world ain’t where it’s at

And if I met you at a party I might walk away
I might hang round for hours just to hear what you’d say
It’s like enough about me, yea, what do you think of me?
What do you think of blah blah blah me?

I bet you think this song is about you
don’t you—you do now, don’t you
but it’s about me, and it’s about time
that I climbed right back out of your mind

to Far Away

Immortal Master walks the earth bringing evil to an end
While a monster walks the earth making death begin
same body, same path, different men, insane again

too far away from sanity
too far away from perfect
too far away from death
blackout, another man takes his last breath
grabs his chest, falls to his knees, another evil deed

to lift the curse is still unknown
862 deaths to atone
9 villages burned to the ground
charred bodies all around

a new man he has become
plagued by the past
the deaths of evil must be vast
internal stryggle, dreams of visions, two souls
too far away from peace
too far away from love

too far away from new
different point of view

one victory, one mind, one body, one soul

at last the new warrior of light is whole
good will triumph till this man has made peace

862 years and 9 months of forgiveness
the man finally falls with a tear on his cheek
too far away from weak

too far away from broken
too far away from evil, very

al gore band...

California is too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day
the earth’s core is too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day
the atmosphere is too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day
the other side of the room is too far away
to walk in a second, walk in a second

but now I’ve got a new pair of shoes
they fit like a mit and nothing is too far away

the alphabet convention is too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day
even my car is parked too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day
it is parked in birthday land
too far away to walk in a day
Washington d.c. is too far away
to walk in a day, walk in a day

but now I’ve got a new pair of shoes
they fit like a mit and nothing is too far away

too far away to walk in a day
even for horses taking courses
in mathematics and other classes
too far away to walk in a day
not gonna make it, no way in hell
you’re gonna get there after the bell
you will be late, you will be sad
then you will go cry to your dad
too far away to walk in a day
too far away to walk in a day
too far away to walk in a day
too far away to walk in a day

Too Far Away, Rone Rivendale style:

You are not here now
But I need you here

I won't cry for you
But I will mourn soon

Missing you like crazy
You are too far away

We had fun times here
But you are now gone

A better place I hope
And someday I'll visit

Missing you like crazy
You are too far away

You were loved you know
No one else will do

You gave us smiles
Laughter that won't stop

Missing you like crazy
You are too far away

"Too Far Away" - The Anchors

My father was just a bootmaker, My mom sent me to the Seminary
Ignored because of my face , I met some socialist revolutionaries
All just a step ladder, couldn't see what'd begun
Couldn't step back down now, gone were the rungs
Joined your party with eagerness, ready to do something right
Power soon caused weakness, paranoid from fright

too far away
lost because of the experience that I lack
i packed up all of my things i put my life in a sack
well i'm editor of your news, under my pen you would cower
I'm passing so quickly from underground to power

ideas that then were thin, expelled because of his thoughts, well why
tried to watch my back, i'm slicing districts like pieces of pie
i'm a cook and my instrument is the lack there-of
there is no one more brutal in the practice
split between opposing forces, and i'm fighting both sides factions

shot severely wound, blood vessel broke in his left brain
paralyzed and mute, never to walk talk or be the same
as your mouthpiece i was loud please me or be replaced,
failure will never be allowed, keep them apart in order to stay safe

too far away
lost because of the experience that I lack
i packed up all of my things i put my life in a sack

Too Far Away

By Steve Durand

Don't spend much time at my dwelling
I'm on the road six days a week
I seem to live my life long distance
Three hundred miles away even as we speak

Now my work week's over
And I'm on my way home
I've got a feeling I've been
Too far away for far too long

I know it's not a bright idea
To go and leave my baby all alone
And it's so hard to give good lovin'
When you're always in the wrong time zone

I'm gettin' kind of worried
And I hope that I am wrong
But I'm afraid that I have been
Too far away for far too long

Here's the conclusion of my story
I've earned the right to sing the blues
When I got back to her apartment
She told me "Babe I've got some news

Let me introduce you
To my new good friend John"
Now I know that I've been
Too far away for far too long

Too far away -- Anti-m

I tried to hold the trailing thread
Unwinding to that monster's head
A labyrinth
A valentine
A kite cut loose from line

I try to hear, your voice sounds strange
Just how far is out of range?
Tell me again -- I used to know
Words in static snow

Too far away
Your disappearing act
Signal decay
Memory obscures fact
