Gov't Mule - Far Away lyrics

Hello again - It's me, the fool on the hill Life here ain't so bad My friends are tired - their lives are wasted Just like their moms and their dads And they don't know what I am talking about And they may never know I'm just fourteen - but I know where I stand Behind these walls - life ain't so easy But it's turned me into a man Sometimes I don't know what I am talking about And I may never know Far away - the cool taste of reality Far away - perfect little family Far away - the little boy I used to be Look at my eyes - maybe they'll show you the truth The truth I cannot see Once in a while I catch a glimpse of it all But it slips away from me Someday I'll know what's going on in my head For now, I'll just stay here Far away - the cool taste of reality Far away - perfect little family Far away - the little boy I used to be Far away I hate it when they look right through you It sends me into a rage I know I ain't crazy - and I don't need your proof I just need out of this cage Hello again - It's me, the fool on the hill Life here ain't so bad
