Look Away
This time we run
This time we hide
This time we draw on all the fire we have inside
We need some time
To find a place
Where I can wipe away the madness from your face
Our name is out
Our name is known
Our name is everywhere, but who knows where we're flown?
I never meant
To kill a man
But I will show you how to live like no one can
So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
I met you wild
In a snowed up town
Where I was waiting tied and bound to be sent down
When I broke loose
You weren't around
So I raised banks and trains until I tracked you down
Now look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
You followed me
When I said no
You lay with me when there was nowhere safe to go
We've made some friends
But now it's done
I always knew that we would never find the sun
So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
Now, look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
This time we hide
This time we draw on all the fire we have inside
We need some time
To find a place
Where I can wipe away the madness from your face
Our name is out
Our name is known
Our name is everywhere, but who knows where we're flown?
I never meant
To kill a man
But I will show you how to live like no one can
So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
I met you wild
In a snowed up town
Where I was waiting tied and bound to be sent down
When I broke loose
You weren't around
So I raised banks and trains until I tracked you down
Now look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
You followed me
When I said no
You lay with me when there was nowhere safe to go
We've made some friends
But now it's done
I always knew that we would never find the sun
So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
Now, look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories that we're told
Look away, look away
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
