Look Away Songtext
von The Dear Hunter

The need to quantitate has put center stage
Regret, remorse, regard
Crazed and calm with a sinner′s psalm
Memories lose their art

So I circle thoughts with centered eyes
That stare without ever seeing
But it's getting dim and just before any
Reasons can be revealed


I fall
And I don′t want to get up
Just leave me down here
Down where the truth won't go
No, I don't want to give up
Just dust me off and
I swear you′d never know
Oh, oh no
Look away
Shade your eyes
Don′t
Stop

Then there's the simple fact
That I was born this way
In such a tout assimilation of mistakes
And don′t you misjudge what I'm capable of
If I′m heir to a broken will

I'll fall
And I won′t want to get up
Just leave me down here
Down where the truth won't go
No, I don't want to give up
Just dust me off and
I swear you′d never know, oh-oh
Look away
Shade your eyes
Don′t
Stop


Leave the pain behind
Casting fear to the side
For just a moment so things can align
And if I fall, sometimes that's just fine
As long as I get up, then things are alright

Oh no, don′t look away
Don't shade your eyes
Don′t
Stop
