Go Away
John Oszajca Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As you can see
Drive safe
Basically what is it that I have to say or have to do
What is it that is going to take to get you to
Go Away
Go Away
The phone rings
This again
My stomache aches
My head spins
What is it that I have to say or have to do
What is it that is going to take to get you to
Go Away
Go Away
You put the you in us now, why don't you just Go Away!
I am sinking in the sands
????
I am drowning, drowning, drowning, drowning
Tucked out
As you can see
Fast enough now
You're killing me
What is it that I have to say or have to do
What is it that is going to take to get you to
Go Away
Go Away
You put the you in us now, why don't you just Go Away!
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
Go Away
