Miles Away Lyrics - Verve Pipe

"Today was a great day", I said but I meant 

Today was the worst day I've ever spent 

I'm trying to be what you want me to be 

So you'll settle down, stop driving me into the ground 

Well, it might be how you fight me till I'm shattered 

I would leave you but to leave you wouldn't matter 

So beneath you, underneath you, I am right here 

Miles away, miles away 

Today was a strange day, I meant what I said 

Today was the first day that I looked ahead 

And if I could be what you want me to be 

Would you let me down? Stop driving me into the ground 

Well, it might be how you fight me till I'm shattered 

I would leave you but to leave you wouldn't matter 

So beneath you, underneath you, I am right here 

Miles away 

Can I have your attention, have your respect? 

We all need redemption, some more or less 

Miles away 

Now you fight me, satellite me till I'm shattered 

I would leave you but to leave you wouldn't matter 

So beneath you, underneath you, I am right here 

Miles away 

Or it may be how you play me till I'm shattered 

I defend it and pretend it doesn't matter 

If you need me then believe me I'll be right here 

Miles away, miles away, miles away, miles away
