Look Away

two eyes starring back at me
 On a magazine in my room
 Could help paper tragedies?
 Paper tragedies that I glue
 So what goes a memory
 If it only feeds black and blue?
 Creating a fantasy
 Something I can read, its true
 I will only look away, if you stay
 If you stay
 I will only look away
 If you stay, if you stay
 I don't see it
 Another message left for me in code
 Hieroglyphics
 I never figured out how to
 Unfold your paper crane's origami agony
 I ripped the edges
 It gave me pleasure
 Figuring it out
 Each question in a shroud
 It's been forever, wasn't forever
 I will only look away
 If you say
 If you say
 I will only look away
 If you say
 If you say
 I will only look away
 If you say
 If you say
 I will only look away
 If you say

 Now when I close my eyes I see how much I've lost
 From scratching a memory 'til all the colors off
 Revealing a jagged line still there in black and white
 When I close my eyes
 If I close my eyes
 But I can't laugh about it yet
 It's all too soon
 The things we used to joke about have all come true
 I had to slowly back away
 
 I will only look away
 If you say
 If you say
 I will only look away
 If you say
 I will only look away
 If you say
 If you say
 I will never look away
 If you say
