Look Away - Anna Tivel
If you go walking in a world made of stars
The neon reflection of your face in the dark
And the heat of the city in the curve of your palm
Look away my darling look away my loved one
And god bless the terror that brings you to bed
Your lily white knuckles your bruising your breath
From the dark where you called out and the things that you said
Look away my darling look away my dear friend
You're not alone you're not alone you're not alone
And under your eyelids it s quiet it s safe
But he stole the sun from where it lay on your face
And never a day you don't cry out to wake
Look away my darling look away look away
Look away my darling look away look away
And how deep the water that carries you home
Warm cotton smell of the clean forest floor
And drifting in dreams let it go let it go
Look away my darling look away from it all
Look away my darling look away from it all
