Away Lyrics by Young Jesus

Home

2012

Chorus:

You’re not what I’ve been looking for
Prescription pills from the floor
We’re not what we’ve been hoping for
Oh, all us kids on the floor!

Verse 1:

The walls are the sky
In this glass house the walls are the sky
Pass me a light
I gotta smoke this through my trachea
Let’s go out tonight
I gotta put this pill in my pupil
Pull down the blinds
I got some lightbulbs that float from the floor
If you’re afraid of darkness afraid of darkness
See I’m not anymore
If you’re afraid of darkness afraid of darkness…

[Chorus]

Verse 2:

Memory lane
But the shapes and angles aren’t the same
Something’s off
The pavement’s all torn up
The tree’s are bearing fruit
In the shape of organs
The clouds are casting shadows
On rabid animals
Are you afraid of darkness, afraid of darkness
See I’m not anymore
Are you afraid of darkness, afraid of darkness…
