lyrics

I never noticed the fade away
The subtle bittersweet release
But they say “maybe” is the hardest thing
And beautiful doesn’t ask to be seen

Did you grasp what it was really like
How you laughed and how you cried
And you thought it charming to have none to prove
But time stood still and you were on the move

And you’re a slave to your liberation
All I know is you don’t give a damn about it
You chase your smile like there’s nothing left
But I don’t know what I’m doing here anymore

You softly tiptoe to your room at night
Not a footprint left behind
If only they could see the world like you
The things you learned but never really knew

You lie away there, the sun beating down
The seconds leaving you behind
But in the sunshine you can’t always see
How heavy it can weigh just to be

(Chorus)

Look Away
Look Away
Look Away
Look Away

Your hands trembled and you touched the earth
The soil melted in your palms
To touch the light was all you needed then
We just become ourselves in the end

(Chorus)
