The song enjoyed much success on both rock and mainstream radio, reaching #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks for fourteen consecutive weeks, one of the longest runs in the chart's history, and #1 on the Modern Rock Tracks for seven non-consecutive weeks. The song also became the band's second Top 40 Hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #24. "So Far Away" was also used in trailer footage of The Punisher before the movie was released, although it was not included on the soundtrack.

Lyrics
this is my life
its not what it was before
all these feelings i've shared
and these are my dreams
that i'd never lived before
somebody shake me
'cause i
i must be sleeping
[chorus]
now that we're here,
it's so far away
all the struggle we thought was in vain
all the mistakes,
one life contained
they all finally start to go away
now that we're here its so far away
and i feel like i can face the day i can forgive
and i'm not ashamed to be the person that i am today
these are my words
that i've never said before
i think i'm doing okay
and this is the smile
that i've never shown before
somebody shake me 'cause i
i must be sleeping
[chorus]
i'm so afraid of waking
please don't shake me
afraid of waking
please don't shake me
[chorus]
