[Verse 1]
Many would learn, many would hurt
Many would chase you away
Many would fear but I'm not here
To run when things go astray

[Verse 2]
And many would learn, many would turn
And many would run for their lives
But I'm not them, I'll dig in
I'll always be there at your side

[Chorus]
Away, way down
Away, way down

[Verse 3]
One day my heart will leap
And you will dance for joy
And not reach for the phone, the pills, or the tape
'Cause you're as honest as a car wreck

[Verse 4]
And sirens never love
They just sing and lure your swimming soul away
Down with your mistakes
[Chorus]
Away, away down
Away, away down
Away, away down
Away, away down

[Verse 5]
By twist of fate, an hour too late
I come to my senses again
But you're not here, just cold and near
You left me as living made sense
