Far From You Lyrics - Pavement

By: Brett M. Baker 

9/11/03 

I'm running away from you (but in my mind) 

You're to damn fast (I cant get away) 

I try to block you out (you find another way) 

All the things you did (didn't phase me) 

There's nothing you can do to (amaze me) 

I look into your eyes (I see nothing) 

Why did I stay (who fucking Knows). 

Now I know the troubles (weren't worth it) 

I wish that I knew (a lot earlier) 

You treated me like shit (almost all the time) 

You made me feel like shit (on the inside) 

Chorus 

I climbed out on a limb (you cut it down) 

So you could watch me fall (I hope its far from you) 

I moving on to better things, better people, better situations, 

I'm moving to a better place (that better place is far from you). 

Chorus 

When the fake tears start to fill your eyes (I will not care) 

When you need a hug from someone (I will not be there) 

When you need a shoulder to lean on (my shoulder; I won't share) 

When you need someone to call (don't you even dare) 

Chorus 2x w/ fading
