Away Lyrics


Shadows are growing longer, as I stumble onwards

Moving in terror, to escape the risen hordes

Longing for your shielding embrace

For you to take me away

As the skies turn grey, and the rain fills the air

The fires spew smoke, the masses gather everywhere

And I stare, searching for your guise

For you to take me away

Here I am, alone in a hostile land

Wishing that you were here to take my hand

They start to surround me, I square them off alone

Their minds set to restore balance, their faces set in stone

Longing for your sweeping breath

To be taken away

Here I am, alone in a hostile land

Wishing that you were here to take my hand

Send a thought to me in my moment of weakness

Why do I feel betrayed?

I will have to face my own bleakness

Can't my saviour take me home?

Here I am, alone in a hostile land

Wishing that you were here to take my hand

Here I am, alone in a hostile land

Wishing that you were here to take my hand

The first strike falls, from where I don't know

My face hits the stones, and I'm gone

The flames of the torches cease to glow

No one there to take me home
