Away

My eyes are red when they meet the morning sun, and
You've got to know by now
I've come undone
You talk awhile and I hear from down the hall, when
Your voice, it drops down low
I wonder what you know
You offer no answers
And though my own, it's not a burden I can embrace
And on my own, I look to find my own escape
The news you brought had the weight to break me down, and
You're not that used to seeing
The scars I've worked around
Another loss and another chance to say this
Won't get the best of me
Well, I guess we'll see
I offer no answers
And though my own, it's not a burden I can embrace
And on my own, I look to find my own escape

I'm away
Although my feet touch the ground
I'm away
Although I see with my two eyes
I'm away
Although my bones tie me here
I'm away
In my mind's own view of a better place

How many thorns can you let to pierce your skin
How many holes can you walk around
Before you fall right in
Sometimes you want the wind to hit your face, and
Sometimes to catch your sails
Whenever sadness fails
And you've got no answers
And though my own, it's not a burden I can embrace
And on my own, I look to find my own escape

I'm away
Although my feet touch the ground
I'm away
Although I see with my two eyes
I'm away
Although my bones tie me here
I'm away
In my mind's own view of a better place

Oh I'm away, on my own
But it's just self-preservation, I'm told
And on the way, to get back home
I'll have to deal with these demons I hold

You find me walking the road in the pouring rain, and
You ask me what I'm doing
I can't explain
I've come to terms with the pain that I've been facing
And it's not the end, I know
But I've got no place go, to look for answers
And though my own, it's not a burden I can embrace
And on my own, I look to find my own escape

I'm away
Although my feet touch the ground
I'm away
Although I see with my two eyes
I'm away
Although my bones tie me here
I'm away
In my mind's own view of a better place

I'm away, on my own, on my own
I'm away, on my own, on my own
I'm away, on my own
I'm away
