Far From Here...

"Fight hard on night like this. Look for a star and wish you could get out of it. Bite down and then pray pray pray. You'll make it through this to sing and say - you hold life dear. Moments turn into hours which become years. And now I'm....

Far from here and we are happy. Far from here, we are all right. Far from here things are peaceful. Far from here, we have insight. Far from here, we've detangled. Our strangled hold and I hope to see you there.

Rise high out of this whole scene. Look down and separate yourself. From your worst dream. Then fly far and then stay stay stay out of the way until the coast is clear and safe. Oh it's hard to imagine the things that we survive. Will we understand it all one day when we arrive??

Far from here and we are happy. Far from here, we are all right. Far from here things are peaceful. Far from here, we have insight. Far from here, we are laughing. Far from here, we are thankful. Far from here, we're forgiven. And for that we are grateful. Far from here, I will see you there." ---Alissa Moreno

When we find ourselves in moments we wish would end or when you look back and find moments in our past we could erase forever from our mind - this is the song I listen to. Because I know that someday far from here the memories that lie in our past won't follow us there. Far from here there is a place that knows of no such words as failure, ugly, hate, hurt, pain, sorrow, judgemental, cold, let down, and struggle. The demons are left at the gates and never allowed in. We are swept over by a feeling of calm and peace. We are granted clarity and understanding. Where the hate and cold once sat its is now filled with love and warmth. Our past tears are left in the past and now tears of laughter fill our eyes. Far from here there are no goodbyes just hello's. Far from here we leave our worries and stresses behind and embrace feelings of hope. Far from here is a place that we all belong and are accepted. Far from here one day we will all meet there...
