Blow Away Lyrics - Bomb In A Birdcage - A Fine Frenzy

One of us is gonna be here and 

One of us is gonna be runnin' 

Off alone into a great unknown 

You're not me, you're a model of freedom 

All you need are your kicks when you need 'em 

Come and go, caught that slow alright 

With one hand off the side 

We get farther away in the blink of an eye 

And it's the time we waste swallowed into space 

It's the time it takes to blow away 

Hey you, yeah, you gotta be leavin' 

Say what you want, what you say, say anythin' 

No one knows just how deep it goes 

We are old in your teenaged tyranny 

And all you need is a hunger to feed 

I've got my own secrets though, say what? 

With a heart full of mess and lore 

We are doomed but we wanted more 

It's the ride we take, the many winged escape 

It's the bough we break to blow away 

And we blow away 

One of us is now retreatin', you knocked me down 

So hard I'm seein' a thousand stars 

Come out where you are 

'Cause I won't never be caught cryin' 

And I will not be taken lyin' down 

It blows into smoke 

The time we waste swallowed into space 

It's the time it takes to blow 

It's the ride we take, the many winged escape 

It's the bough we break to blow 

It's the times we say 

That no one's gonna take your place 

It's our mistake to blow away, we blow away
