Sail Away
I learned to read
All the ABC's of life from the news
Ignored the things that are obvious
I couldn't bear to watch
What's really happening
I tend to care
By following what says in the books
Ignored all things I'm oblivious
I couldn't take that path
It's painful to see me
Go and fall
The trap door opened wide
I fell and touched the earth
I saw and felt rebirth
I woke up from a dream
A nightmare
If this is how you bid your goodbyes, your goodbyes
Cutting all of your, all your ties
All your ties
I should've listened
Instead of pretending
That every moment's perfect
But it's time to wave my hand
And sail, sail away
I tried to be
The person that they've shown on TV
I forced myself to be serious
I couldn't stand to see that person isn't me
So I tried to find
The clues that made me read all the books
I tried to find where I may have lost
The sense of who I am
Cos I don't want to watch me
Go and fall
The trap door opened wide
I fell and touched the earth
I saw and felt rebirth
I woke up from a dream
A nightmare
If this is how you bid your goodbyes, your goodbyes
Cutting all of your, all your ties
All your ties
I should've listened
Instead of pretending
That every moment's perfect
But it's time to wave my hand
And sail, sail away
Sometimes it lasts for a day
Friends can stay for the week
Rare times when they stay as you sail away
You gotta keep those precious people by your side
All the ABC's of life from the news
Ignored the things that are obvious
I couldn't bear to watch
What's really happening
I tend to care
By following what says in the books
Ignored all things I'm oblivious
I couldn't take that path
It's painful to see me
Go and fall
The trap door opened wide
I fell and touched the earth
I saw and felt rebirth
I woke up from a dream
A nightmare
If this is how you bid your goodbyes, your goodbyes
Cutting all of your, all your ties
All your ties
I should've listened
Instead of pretending
That every moment's perfect
But it's time to wave my hand
And sail, sail away
I tried to be
The person that they've shown on TV
I forced myself to be serious
I couldn't stand to see that person isn't me
So I tried to find
The clues that made me read all the books
I tried to find where I may have lost
The sense of who I am
Cos I don't want to watch me
Go and fall
The trap door opened wide
I fell and touched the earth
I saw and felt rebirth
I woke up from a dream
A nightmare
If this is how you bid your goodbyes, your goodbyes
Cutting all of your, all your ties
All your ties
I should've listened
Instead of pretending
That every moment's perfect
But it's time to wave my hand
And sail, sail away
Sometimes it lasts for a day
Friends can stay for the week
Rare times when they stay as you sail away
You gotta keep those precious people by your side
