Lynn Carey Saylor - Million Miles Lyrics

(Words & Music by Lynn Carey Saylor (c)

Don't look at me that way
with a superficial grin
like you haven't heard a thing i say
hope still lives inside my head
but it gets harder every day
to fit inside the world you're livin' in
why can't you see what you're doing to yourself?
you're drowning in a sea of fools
i don't know why it is your goal to shatter all of the rules

(chorus)
You're a million miles away
but you're right in front of me
you're starring in my play
but you're fumbling your lines
you say you feel so much for me
but i'm a begger with a dream
and you're runnin' out of time
cause i can start to picture me
a million miles away
even though i don't want to be
can you open up your head
and let me see inside
don't tell me that it's all been said
you know that i have tried
it's so hard getting through
you're the master of your own disguise
why can't you see what you're doing to yourself?
i don't know if i can save you
sometimes i think you want to say you don't want me to

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
don't make promises you can't keep
the hole you dig will swallow you
you'll sink too deep
do i need to lead you to the writing on the wall?like a bird that trys to fly with a broken wing
you're in danger of a fall
(solo section, end chorus)

you're a million miles away
but you're right in front of me
you're starring in my play
but you're fumbling your lines
you say you feel so much for me
but i'm a begger with a dream
and you're runnin' out of time
cause i can start to picture me
a million miles away
even though i don't want you to be
a million miles from me
