Cover art for Far, Far Away lyrics by Five Iron Frenzy

The scriptural basis of this song is John 21:1-8. I'm not really sure about what the chorus is talking about, but overall it seems that the song is encouraging us to have faith in God. That when things seem hopeless and we are broken hearted, we need to remember to trust God and he will deliver us. "When truth can be so distant And hope evades our reach Peter swam across the water And found it on the beach"
