Anywhere but Here Lyrics by Jeri Silverman

LeafLike

2014

[Verse 1]
The grocery list
Hangs below my ears
Apples and oranges weigh me down
Like trapped pigeons wanting to fly
I hear them screaming
Clawing to get out of my mind
If it's not safe in here
It’s where I disappear
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I, I
[Chorus]
It’s where I get churned out and remodeled as a worser part of me
It’s where I
Disappear
[Verse 2]
Chewing lips and pulling hair
I make lists in my head
Get me through the day just so you won’t see
That’s where you’ll find me
Safely tucked away behind
The twisted folds of space
Before I leave this place
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I try to shake the present emptiness of being anywhere but here
I, I
[Chorus]
It’s where I get churned out and remodeled as a worser part of me
It’s where I
Disappear
[Bridge]
I’m not gonna stop the words falling out of my mouth
It’s a verse I have yet to rehearse
I’m not gonna stop the words falling out of my mouth
It’s a verse I have yet to rehearse
I’m not gonna stop the words falling out of my mouth
It’s a verse I have yet to rehearse
I’m not gonna stop the words falling out of my mouth
It’s a verse I have yet to rehearse
[Chorus]
It’s where I get churned out and remodeled as a worser part of me
It’s where I
Disappear
