Three demo versions of this song during the development of Fallen also exist.

Lyrics[]

Fallen Outtake (Mystary EP version)[]

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief, a whore, and a liar

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

I’m numb to you
Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you, not love, just nothing

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

Tried to forget you but without you
I feel nothing

Don’t leave me here by myself
I can't breathe

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away

Demo Version[]

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief, a whore, and a liar

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

I’m numb to you
Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you, not love, just nothing

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

Don’t leave me here
By myself
I can't breathe

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

I run to you
[Run away from this hell]
Call out your name
[Giving up, giving in]
I see you there
[Still you are]
Farther away

Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
Farther away
