Away

My friends all know that I'm out of touch
They say I'm cool but I think too much
But joke's on them because it's the only way that they'd like me

I hesitate to say I'm not
A fan of letting summers rot
But still I'll try to be more than a breath oscillating machine

So find me in the future so very far from here
Complacently dependent on my apathy and fear
Or so help me God

Or so help me God!

My parents say it'll be okay
To play it smart and to stand up straight
They promise me things won't always be this easy

One by one friends leave the room
Their faces vow to visit soon
Impermanence has never been so ruthlessly and sternly deceiving

They're moving away
They're leaving today
And so they depart
They're moving away
They're finding escape
They're breaking away
We're growing apart
They're moving away

They're moving away
(Moving away)
They're leaving today
And so they depart
(Leaving me here)
They're moving away
They're finding escape
(Breaking apart)
They're breaking away
We're growing apart
(Leaving me here)
They're moving away
