A Life Away From Here

from A Life Away From Here by The Future According to Eve

about

A Life Away From Here is a song written about the dichotomy of being true to yourself while trying to exist in a world full of fake, pomp and conspiracy. It equates our lives to only digital characters in a game of life while asking the question: who will really make it through?

The Future According to Eve is a project by producer, songwriter and musician Michael Lobb. Formed in 1999, The Future According to Eve released their first album on streaming services “Past Lives” in 2021. The first of a new batch of music, A Life Away From Here explores rock music in a more progressive form with meter changes, complex chord progressions, synth leads and tasty guitar solos. Featured as a bookend to the single, A Life Away From Here (Requiem) is a bare-bones piano and violin composition featuring frequent collaborator Joylin (Romania) and Brazilian pianist Neemias Teixeira.

While only a single, this is 15 minutes of meaningful rock that you can’t miss.

lyrics

When I was younger I could see
Through the façade in front of me
As I grew older, thankfully
I learned to live with fake realities
And frailty.

Sometimes the people I thought I knew
Are patterns repeating over fantasy
As we move forward through time and space
All but a few are scarred by tragedy
Catastrophe

You know that I can't look you in your eyes
You know that I believe you it's in your eyes

In the end, it's all a game
Digital characters we choose to play
Back to the start, it's all the same
Spawn a new life and try again
Conspire again
