Miles Away/Follow Me - Savatage

And a cool, cool rain comes down

On a world burned by the sun

And the moon arises like a child

And the moment is undone

And the stars never say what they see

As the moon flirts with shadows it makes

Through the fallen trees

Some would wait for the morning light

But I fall asleep 'til I’m safe

In the arms of night

Let the darkness roll in

Let it wipe the light away

In the distance

Always calling

Morpheus

He beckons play

Still the morning is pre-ordained

But I believe light is the source of all of our pain

It reveals our smallest sins

But dark covers all and will always take you

Armed and gunning

I’ve been running

Always just before the day

In the distance

Day is dawning

But I’m already miles away

In the night there’s wonder

Always there for you to see

In the light of morning

Visions fade

And dreams can flee

With the darkness the night forgives

Covers our scars and lets

The lost souls live

And the morning’s a distant fear

But if we move fast they’ll never find us

Armed and gunning

I’ve been running

Through a world that’s in decay

Let them thunder stare and wonder

Cause I’m already miles away

And the rain comes down

I really want to know

What you had in store

I couldn’t really tell

Perhaps it’s just as well

I came here with a dream

And I just had to see

If my dream would soar

I knocked on every door

His whole life was written

Written there inside

The new weekly bible

His modern T.V. Guide

Every night he stares back at the screen, yeah

A man only sees want he wants to see

When he’s in his mind

Where he is that he wants to be

Living in a world where he’s safe from reality

Won’t you take a chance on this night

And follow me

Won’t you follow me (repeat)

Don’t need no super heros

Don’t need no movie stars

Don’t need no politicians

In big black shiny cars

Don’t need no preacher

Whose church is my T. V

A man only sees what he wants to see

When he’s in his mind

Where he is what he wants to be

Living in a world where he’s safe from reality

Won’t you take a chance on this night child

And follow me

Won’t you follow me (repeat)

Once was a broken hero

The kind that we all know

The kind that hides inside us

For we never show

The kind we say that could never be me

His whole life was written

Written there inside

The new weekly bible

His modern T.V. Guide

Stare back at the screen, yeah yeah

A man only sees want he wants to see
