There was a tune when I wrote it, there isn’t one now, I had a heart when I spoke it, I wish I could remember how.
Every thing is gonna be fine
take my heart, wrapp’d in twine
hold my soul, save me for the last
cemetary, oaken dyed maple
so sweeten, heard hearts if able.
pieced together like fractured glass
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my soul I want to stay
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my heart, Its not today
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
And I’m found in this place,
In a world without a face,
and I don’t know how to go home
and I’m hurt and amazed
at all the myrid ways
that I keep being told to roam.
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my soul I want to stay
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my heart, Its not today
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
To be oblivious,
we look for things outside us,
we hunt for words that never come.
To break through our own trust
we close eyes, let them rust
we seek hope in a cup of rum.
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my soul I want to stay
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
Walk away,
—Walk away,
———Tell my heart, Its not today
—Walk away,
Walk away, aye.
