lyrics

AWAY

Trim the hedge, keep it neat
Mow the lawn, short and sweet
And colour-coordinate the flowers at your feet
And think of me

And hold that thought, treat it kind
Pause to marvel in our decline
And if beauty is beheld in my eyes, I hope I don't go blind
And I'll see you soon, sometime

Bake the bread, let it rise
Write a song for our demise
And if you ever question all this purpose in disguise
Don't look so surprised

Arm the troops overseas
Let them spread like a disease
And if you get nervous, have a drink for your worries
And pay no mind, please

Your name is in the Book of Life, but there's white-out for mistakes
If we don't make the grade, let's be erased
And if we paint ourselves into a corner, then we'll just have to walk through paint
I wouldn't have it any other way

If you were here, you could stay
And if I pushed you, I just pushed myself…
If you were here, you could stay
And if I pushed you, I just pushed myself…away
