Taught To Look Away Lyrics - Matt Pond Pa

No one knows why we were taught to look away 

There might be something wrong with me 

There's nothing that I can't believe. 

Are you listening 2, 000 miles from here? 

Is the same sky just as clear? 

Out of the window the slow light morning 

First hits your hands, touches your face 

Though it's uncomfortable, though it is awkward 

Days leave the night, eyes in the light. 

The only time you're listening 

When we run from all the things we could say 

I don't know what you could be here 

The sounds have gone so far, far away.

I don't know why we were taught to look away 

There might be something wrong with me 

There's nothing that I won't believe 

Are you listening 2, 000 miles from here? 

Are the crickets just as clear?
