1,000 MILES AWAY Lyrics by Bill Waves

2020

[Intro]
Yeah
Check, check
Check, check
Yeah, yeah
[Verse]
I always thought that my cam caps were like crowns
Made for kings of the lost
But I think they just taught me to put me down to make me think they're not
I am what I think but I'm not what you thought or whatever you called me
And everyday I believe in god because
The devil keeps calling, the devil keeps calling
The angels keep singing, a felon keep falling
But every day I'm up to spite myself in thesе mornings
You can see hell inside thesе drawings
The vision gets blurred and sure chars
I came up selling pills in the birth place of Andy Warhol
I was 15 in my pure form with yellow coke do us raw
Blowing smoke on my window sill and sell off under my flaws
But I can feel the sun...
I can feel the sun..
I can feel the sun beam on my beautiful flaws
Chemicals coming out my pores
Hoping I'll be there tomorrow in the mirror on my door
The city lights that hide the stars won't throw me off or tell me wrong, I know there's more
I'm tryna lift the ceiling off, my shoulders' sore
I'm still in awe from what it taught me
When this life is but a dream that we're killing off, so I know it's war
But you probably won't see half the shit we saw until around your 40's
[Hook]
So please save us, please save us
I've got a self destructive mind
I don't need favors, need favors
I just really need to know the voice telling me there's a ghost in my room
Is only in my head so I know I can be closer to truth
But it keeps racing
So please save us, please save us
I've got a self destructive mind
I don't need favors, need favors
I just really need to know the voice telling me I don't know what to do
Is only in my head so when I'm home, I can be closer to you
But it keeps racing
[Verse]
I never made it alone but started early
Searching the flame a heart remained cold
Thirsty for what I craved since first grade in my Hardaway jersey
And every day I know it hurts that I made it worse
I'll pray I find the words I need for me to try and say
Like birds can sing
I'll paint a picture I can frame
Or write poems about the brave
Where the fake answers just spread like a cancer
And that addiction waits in the pavement lens
On the heads that we ran on trying to live this way
Like how'd it get this way?
From the farthest days away
Since gettin' head in the alleyway
With a ounce of 'late in my coat
On the rainy days I was broke
With this scale I had to recalibrate
Now I pray all I know is I found a way
They just know how to make boundaries, I break the molds
I'm tired of being around all the same old shit, it's a joke
If it's out of state then I'll go
I feel out of place when I'm home
If it's a thousand miles away, a long way I still have to go
I found a way
They just know how to make boundaries, I break the molds
Pray to god we'll see better days
Fade your lies and need every bit of strength
To break this high, so I made my mind to be featherweight
Flying through the ink on the page
The lightest, he penetrate
The blinds that fade away, with a racing mind that seems every day
Yeah
With a racing mind that seems every day
Yeah
[Hook]
So please save us, please save us
I've got a self destructive mind
I don't need favors, need favors
I just really need to know the voice telling me there's a ghost in my room
Is only in my head so I know I can be closer to truth
But it keeps racing
So please save us, please save us
I've got a self destructive mind
I don't need favors, need favors
I just really need to know the voice telling me I don't know what to do
Is only in my head so when I'm home, I can be closer to you
But it keeps racing
