The Franklin Electric - So Far

Holy ghost in my heart and mind
And I need you now and I need you now
You've been hard to find
The boys have gotten fevers and the girls are always trying to get away
Now you feel like that soldier sick of fighting all these feelings every day
She said won't you take me out of here
It's your responsibility, my dear

It seems so far from here
It seems so far from here

When you're exactly where you're supposed to be
And everybody's just like you and me
Stuck with the faith of a child in a grown man's pride makes you weak
When you speak
You speak the words of a restless mind

Oh-oh

Bare your secrets with an open heart
If all else fails
She said as she stood alone
And pushed them further away
There ain't no absolute, there ain't no guarantees or any other way
When you can't tame the animal that spilled blood on your brand new clothes today

She said won't you take me out of here
I'd save you if I could
You took the bait and ate that hook and now you want to cut that line again

It seems so far from here
It seems so far from here

When you're exactly where you're supposed to be
And everybody's just like you and me
Stuck with the faith of a child in a grown man's pride makes you weak
When you speak
You speak the words of a restless mind

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

When you're exactly where you're supposed to be
And everybody's just like you and me
Stuck with the faith of a child in a grown man's pride makes you weak
When you speak
You speak the words of a restless mind

You can escape at almost any time
Oh-oh

So, so, so, so, so far
