Another day in this carnival of souls
Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows; ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home..
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home..
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down.
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
[guitar solo]
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down,
To break me down..
To break me down.
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me... down.
Another nights ends, end as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows; ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home..
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home..
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down.
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
[guitar solo]
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down,
To break me down..
To break me down.
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me... down.

Album: War Is the Answer
Guitarist Zoltan Bathory told "Metal Hammer" about this song's evolution: “We'd been kicking this song around for over a year, and we did record an early version of it, but somehow we couldn’t quite get it to gel. That can happen with songs – you're not sure about them to start them, and then they grow into something special, which is really what happened with 'The Bleeding'… I mean, that only just scraped onto the first album!
"Then Kevin (Churko, producer) heard 'Far From Home', which is kind of a ballad I guess, and he encouraged us to work on it some more, and today of course I'm really glad we did. We changed the structure, added some strings, and generally moved the track up to a whole new level. “Now I would say it's a potential single, but quite a way down the line…"
