Lately, I’ve been drifting like a ghost
Could’ve sworn we were close
But you’ve been moving coast to coast
Leaving memories like smoke
Faded pictures in my mind, yeah
Can’t rewind, yeah, I try but it’s over now
All those fuckin’ plans, we designed, yeah
You left 'em all behind like it don’t matter now
I reach for you in every star, yeah
Wishing you weren’t so far, yeah
Tell me why’d it have to go like this
Now I’m sinking every night we miss
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Got me lost here in the dark
I was holding on so tight
Guess you slipped right out my life
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Feel the distance in my heart
And I’m caught up in the scars
Wondering why, why so far?
Every mile, every road, it’s getting longer
Thought I knew you, guess I was wrong, yeah
I poured my soul out, let it linger
But you just pointed to the door, yeah
Now I’m sitting here alone, cigarette burning slow
Talking to the shadows, feelin’ low, yeah
All this space you put between us
Got me in my head, asking, “What’s the reason?”
I reach for you in every star, yeah
Wishing you weren’t so far, yeah
Tell me why’d it have to go like this
Now I’m sinking every night we miss
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Got me lost here in the dark
I was holding on so tight
Guess you slipped right out my life
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Feel the distance in my heart
And I’m caught up in the scars
Wondering why, why so far?
Bridge
Why’d you leave me out here alone?
Like a stranger in a place called home
Every word you said feels cold
And I’m haunted by what’s left untold
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Got me lost here in the dark
I was holding on so tight
Guess you slipped right out my life
Why so far? Baby, why so fuckin’ far?
Feel the distance in my heart
And I’m caught up in the scars
Wondering why, why so far?
Why so far?
I’m reaching, but it’s hard
Left with all these broken parts
Wondering why, why so far?
