Gomez - Get Miles Lyrics






I love this island but this island's killing me
Sitting here in silence, man, I don't get no peace
The waves upon my shore take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Jump off this island gonna head out towards the sea

I love this city man, but this city's killing me
Sitting here in all this noise man, I don't get no peace
The cars below my street take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Gonna leave this city man, gonna head out towards the sea

Get miles away, get miles away
Get miles away, get miles

I love this planet but this planet's killin' me
Sitting here in all this grass man I don't get no weed
The sweat comin' from my pores take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head to the Galaxy
Gonna leave this planet man, gonna head to the Galaxy

Get miles away, get miles away
Get miles away, get miles away
Get miles away, get miles away
Get miles away, get miles

    I love this island but this island's killing me

    Best song writers of all time. The best band you’ve never heard of.

  14. C.... G....

    Apparently, taking LSD with a bunch of antidepressants can stop a migrane in it's trace. It also gets you high and helps you see music in water drops. Thanks, House!

    C.... G....

    Lol didn't work

    C.... G....

    @Teodor Georgiev It did.

    C.... G....

    Clockwork Girl, Psychedelics in general like psilocybin & lysergic acid diethylamide have both been found to essentially nullify migraines without any help from SS(N)RI's.

  15. J.... S....

    yes yes YES !

  16. G.... S....

  25. S.... H....

    You yuppie hipsters, should leave this music alone, no I didn't hear it from some shit Netflix series, I bought it in 99? I think? Get your own tunes! Music for bearded cunts before it was a 'thing'. Love this tune,

    S.... H....

    I just liked the song, does it really matter where I heard it from? And you're calling other people hipsters but braggin about hearing it right when it came out? lmao, nice dude.

  26. m.... ....

    I love this island but this island's killing me
    Sitting here in silence, man i don't get no peace

    Gonna leave everything i know gonna head out towards the sea
    Jump off this island gonna head out towards the sea.

    I love this city man but this city's killing me
    Sitting here in all this noise man i don't get no peace
    The cars below my street take me away piece by piece
    Gonna leave everything i know gonna head out towards the sea
    Gonna leave this city man, gonna head out towards the sea
    Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away

    I love this planet but this planet's killin' me

  33. n.... ....

    This was awesome back in 1998, but when I look at it with today's perspective it just sounds super staid and cliche...like something on a CD you'd find at Starbucks. I know that's not what it was then, but were I to hear this without context that is what I would think.

    n.... ....

    I have to respectfully disagree. I really think a couple of mushroom caps and stems would aid in your retracting of your comment.

    n.... ....

    +Rich Kanigoski amen brotha

    n.... ....

    You could say that about the Beatles and the Stones, just because they 've been copied so much, it's wrong, you 're an idiot.

    n.... ....

    I think this is a quality tune

  34. L.... D....

    Brilliant band.......................Amazing live as well

    L.... D....

    I live in the states and have had the honor of seeing them live twice. Definitely a great band live.

  35. d.... h....

    M.... W....

    Awe yeah brother. This was one of my all time favs that's for sure.

    M.... W....

    +Matt Willoughby Mate I remember them days, 17 years of age without a worry in the world!

    M.... W....

    you can still be that free as soon as you realise it

    M.... W....

    shut the fuk up braig..we here fukin it up,wtf u talkin bout?!

    M.... W....

    i was blasting this when i ran away from my parents.. ended up going back home after 3 hours due to hunger..

  38. r.... c....

    Remember seeing them at T in the park when i wasn't that fussed about them, but they were amazing they even played the theme tune from only fools and horses which was fantastic!

  39. S.... W....

    Gotta love my old mans taste in music. Would never have found these guys.

    S.... W....

    Your old mans taste in music? Holy shit am I that old.....I'm only 32 and remember this coming out lol

    Trust me Oxycodone is way better! I know the main ingredient is the same but there is no tylenol in Oxy's. I get 4-60mg Oxycontin per day and 6-10mg instant release Oxycodone per day as well.

    K.... ....

    JohnnyRebel81 you grow more pain receptors the more you use. And become used to the narcs. Meaning there will be no relief when you really need it

    K.... ....

    @JohnOriginal, luckyyyyyyyyyyy. I'm surprised you have a doctor so not afraid to prescribe good pain medication since they've been so villified, and a pharmacy that will actually fill the scripts. May I ask where you're from?

    K.... ....

    De hecho esta canción está relacionada cuando House experimentó con lsd

  43. Z.... A....

    Still shocked somehow fucking COLDPLAY got the nod for best new artist over these dudes in the day.

  44. F.... ....

    Dr. House sent me!

    F.... ....

    Haha Me too.... Thank You Doctor.

    F.... ....

    Never watched it, tempted if they had the taste to put Gomez in though.

    F.... ....

    House MD has one of the most elaborate soundtracks put to television.

    F.... ....

    Dr. House sent me too! Most of my 'unheard of' music has been obtained this way! Proving television can't be all bad, eh?😎

    F.... ....

    Farley77 me too

  45. 7.... ....

    I love this planet but this planets  killin me sittin here in all this grass man I don't get no peace

    the sweat comin from my pores take me away piece by piece gonna leave everything I know gonna head to the galaxy gonna leave this planet man gonna head to the galaxy

    get miles away get miles away get miles

  46. m.... ....

    F****n awesome, thank you House and your migraine, a little bit embarrassing its been around since '98 and I'm only aware of it now, anyway better late than never

    m.... ....

    House had some of THE coolest music! Just rewatched S2. Ep.12, Distractions. It still cracks me up that House was tripping on acid while listening to this song. This was always one of my favoritest shows. It could've gone on for a lot more seasons if Fox hadn't decided to be so frickin' cheap. At least, if you're a Prime member, you can watch the reruns on Amazon. There is NOTHING good on tv anymore! Between Netflix, Hulu and Amazon, though, I'm covered, so I don't even bother anymore. Screw the networks!

  47. F.... ....

    An English man here in Buenos Aires introduced me to this band and I am deeply grateful to him!! Thanks Sam S!

  48. j.... v....

    Great song. Love the beat!!!!

  49. J.... v....

    halil sezai mi lan bu? :DDDDDDDD

  50. M.... T....

    Same here. And if my life had a soundtrack, this would be the first single.

  51. G.... ....

    The guy on the cover looks like Jerry Seinfeld.

  52. C.... J....

    saw them on austin city limits on pbs. wow this voice just jumped of the tv screen!

  53. s.... ....

    gomez,radiohead the 2 best bands too have come out of england in the last 20 years

  54. p.... N....

    Brilliant! Soundtrack to my early adult life....sweet memories, even sweeter music, takes me to a higher place! :)

  55. s.... ....

    please dont let it sicken your hole. Accept it. Your mistake is comparing art with commerce. Gomez are supreme :-)

  56. K.... ....

    this is the greatest song ever made i think maybe

  57. t.... ....

    What's all this House MD bollox's ???? it's Gomez from the U.K ? this one was played back in the day Live at Demonfort hall Leicester U.K....LSD,,,sweet Whizzzzzzz n pill's

  58. S.... H....

    This one played when I was on LSD trip.

  59. B.... B....

    That song fitted so perfectly with the scene !

  60. J.... W....

    Ah, it brings me back to... um. Something... back in the 70's. Or maybe before... oh man, I so got the munchies now.... groovy tune though.

  61. M.... A....

    Awesome tune

  62. A.... S....

    As was then as is now... one of most dope tracks i've ever heard.

  63. M.... G....

    The masses aren't known for their critical thinking or enlightenment. Gomez is the thinking persons band, with a soul.

  64. C.... T....

    House brought me here

  65. C.... D....

    What an amazing album.

  66. g.... ....

    Spoken like a true Irishman! :)

  67. S.... M....

    I have loved this song for sooooo many years ,It's ridiculous....he has the best voice ever!

  68. G.... ....

    What a great song

  69. H.... ....

    with your comment, Bill Murray would NOT be proud!

  70. m.... ....

    If I could recommend any band to Watch live it's these boys. Their live show sound is identical to their recording. Best gig i ever went to. And I've been to an arcade fire show with just 200 attendees. That was pretty fucking awesome too.

  71. m.... ....

    ha!! I'm a winner alright. Live in the west of Ireland and cry myself to sleep most night. That's how you become a winner son.

  72. H.... ....

    with your picture, I know you're a winner!

  73. B.... J....

    Word Cafe brought me here

  74. x.... B....

    House brought me here!!!

  75. S.... H....

    one of the best alternatives ever.

  76. s.... ....

    heard this song many years ago, loved it then and even more so now..

  77. m.... ....

    40 000 views??? ridiculous, these guys are fucking amazing, sickens my hole lady gaga and justin gay head bieber are multi millionaires

  78. n.... ....

  79. j.... ....

    @mickyboy321 try 14 years dude!!!

  80. j.... ....

    Finally! I have been looking for this song forever!

  81. s.... ....

    I was watching a marathon of House & I heard like 4 lines of this song & I just had to find it

  82. B.... B....

    This song is so awesome. Why music like this doesn't have more radio playing ?

  83. m.... ....

    just dug this albam out i forgot how good this albam is i think its over ten years old but dont hold me to that.lol

  84. m.... ....

    @lifedeathexpert Gonna leave this city man, gonna head out towards the sea
    Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away
    Get miles
    I love this planet but this planet's killin' me
    Sitting here in all this grass man I don't get no weed
    The sweat comin' from my pores take me away piece by piece
    Gonna leave everything I know gonna head to the galaxy
    Gonna leave this planet man, gonna head to the galaxy
    Get miles away [repeated]
    Get miles

  87. m.... ....

    I love this island but this island's killing me
    Sitting here in silence, man I don't get no peace
    The waves upon my shore take me away piece by piece
    Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
    Jump off this island gonna head out towards the sea
    I love this city man but this city's killing me
    Sitting here in all this noise man I don't get no peace
    The cars below my street take me away piece by piece
    Gonna leave everything

  88. E.... ....
