Way Away Lyrics - Bread & Circus - Toad The Wet Sprocket

Line of people to pass you by 

Posing sympathy with their whitewash eyes 

With the ladies feigning their mourning cries 

And the men shaking hands 

Weigh away 

Way away 

As all the pictures in your mind 

As you're passed the thousandth time 

Thousandth photograph 

Listen to sympathetic lies 

As their reasons change with their mourning 'guise 

With the gentlemen feigning sorrowed sighs 

And drinking champagne 

Weigh away 

Way away 

As all the people pass and pose 

You hold back the tears 

And hold onto memories 

Small talk hangs like a dirty cloud 

Saying nothing real but deafening loud 

An urge to run away from the crowd 

And mourn all alone 

Make a promise to no one 

Wondering if you been worthwhile 

Turn away from the chatter 

And the hungry smiles
