Away Lyrics by Finlay Shakespeare

Directions Out of Town

0

Set the lights down low
Set the lights down low
Baby’s gotta know
Set the lights down low
Baby’s gotta know
Set the lights down low
Baby’s gotta know
Baby’s gotta know
Baby’s gotta know
Pillars of white are all I see
Kept between the sound and scent of you and me
Only such a mistake should set us free
The place that’s kept for us to meet
And I could be alone or I could be here
You could be alone or you could be here
Watch it burn away
Watch it burn away
Watch it burn away
Set some kind of thunder again
Fire across the sheets
A flash of light and I called you my friend
Knowing not what to do
It’s just that the words fall so close to you
Stranded upon the sound
Set some light away
Set some light away
Set some light away
Turn my back on progress
Feet are just touching the shore
Kept floating over the surface
Knowing you still want to see more
She said:
Walk away from the past moment
Cut beneath the city lights
The sun rises above and you are kept silent
Night falling away and we are kept silent
But still this geography
Just trying to find what it means
She’s just an extension of me
You’re just an extension of me
It’s just an extension of me
