  • She laid her thoughts out on the table
    With sorrow difficult and bright
    She had decided to sever her ties
    As the horizon burned, she turned

    The wind combed through her hair like high notes
    Tinkling furrows across the sky
    There would be tears, flowers, long shadows
    She could see it now
    The jets would dive

    Away, away, away you go
    Before they push you under
    Away, away, away you go
    Before they pull you in

    She held herself up at the high point
    A joining of decision and dismay
    And clay was forming over her feet
    As the horizon blurred
    She turned and she knew

    Away, away, away you go
    Before they push you under
    Away, away, you let it go
    Before it pulls you in

    Cold into the current, there she goes
    Cold into the current, there she goes
    Cold into the current, there she goes
    Cold into the current, there she goes

    The way it is, the way it goes,
    The way it gets you down, you know
    The way it is, the way it goes
    The way it gets you down

    Away, away, away you go
    Before they push you under, you know
    Away, away, away you go
    Before it pulls you in

    Away, away, you let it go
    Before they pushed you under the ground
    Away, away, you let it go
    Before it pulls you in Writer/s: FARIS ADAM BADWAN, JOSEPH PATRICK SPURGEON, JOSHUA MARK HAYWARD, RHYS TIMOTHY WEBB, TOM FURSE COWAN
