Far Away Lyrics

Lost my map, now I'm stuck on this island
Underneath all the sand there are diamonds
People walk in a trance they never listen
They're a mess, they're a slave to the rhythm

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

Lost my map, now I'm stuck on the sidelines
Wanna play with the cool kids all the time
People talking in tongues they never listen
I'm a mess, I'm a slave on a mission

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home
And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home
And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

Lost my map, now I'm stuck on this island
Underneath all the sand there are diamonds
People walk in a trance they never listen
They're a mess, they're a slave to the rhythm

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

Lost my map, now I'm stuck on the sidelines
Wanna play with the cool kids all the time
People talking in tongues they never listen
I'm a mess, I'm a slave on a mission

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home
And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home
And when I'm all alone
It's like the twilight zone
I've never felt so far from home

Spent too much money on coffee and cigarettes
I've never felt so far away
Spent too much time on freeways and internet
I've never felt so far away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
