EVERYONE I'M CLOSE TO IS FAR AWAY
WORDS & MUSIC: Earl P. Reinhalter
I. faces line the wall just like a mural.
I'm in the dark, they're in the light.
the sirens make me feel so rural.
I am so ambient tonight.
and everytime I have something to say,
everyone I'm close to is far away.
II. think I'll go back home and write a letter.
I'll check my answering machine.
the traffic light could not be redder.
everywhere I am is in-between.
the stations all sign off, the anthems play.
and everyone I'm close to is far away.
III. the B drive belches at the clicking mouse.
the window blinks and I log on.
I'm in my virtual clubhouse.
the members live inside this small icon.
I think that I'll be here 'til break of day
'cause everyone I'm close to,
everyone I'm close to,
everyone I'm close to is far...
... away.
