Lyrics
Anywhere But Here

I set the phone back in the cradle
Held my head in my hands
And maybe if I pray hard enough
The earth will open up and take me in
I slipped the ring off of my finger
Felt its absence burn my skin
And maybe if I pray hard enough
The earth will open up and take me in
Because right now I'd rather be
Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
Under the weight of your decision
I feel my world caving in
And maybe if I pray hard enough
the night will open up and pull me in
Because right now I'd rather be
Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
In distance and in feeling
You're a thousand miles away
And I'd pay a king's ransom
For some kind of relief from this pain
