EVERYONE I'M CLOSE TO IS FAR AWAY WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter I. faces line the wall just like a mural. I'm in the dark, they're in the light. the sirens make me feel so rural. I am so ambient tonight. and everytime I have something to say, everyone I'm close to is far away. II. think I'll go back home and write a letter. I'll check my answering machine. the traffic light could not be redder. everywhere I am is in-between. the stations all sign off, the anthems play. and everyone I'm close to is far away. III. the B drive belches at the clicking mouse. the window blinks and I log on. I'm in my virtual clubhouse. the members live inside this small icon. I think that I'll be here 'til break of day 'cause everyone I'm close to, everyone I'm close to, everyone I'm close to is far... ... away. © Copyright 1995 Earl P. Reinhalter.   All Rights Reserved.
