"It takes courage to find out who you truly are." -e.e. cummings


You're leaving a trail of smoke in your wake/

You're gonna go where no one can find you/

Where no one can touch you/

You are on your own now/

This was how it's meant to be/

Just you, the open sky, and your guitar/



There's no more city lights to blind you/

No more people left to call/

No more noise filling up your head/

And everything is clear now/

Now that you've gone away/

All you needed was some space/



You're burning up rubber now as you go/

You're headed to dive off the cliff/

Take a leap of faith/

You are soaring through the air/

Flying, floating, free/

Nothing weighing on your shoulders/



There's no more city lights to blind you/

No more people left to call/

No more noise filling up your head/

And everything is clear now/

Now that you've gone away/

All you needed was some space/



World/

The world is spinning faster now/

It's out of control/

I'm lost in a sea of faces/

And I don't know which way to go/

Where do I go?/



No more city lights to blind you/

No more people left to call/

No more noise filling up your head/

And everything is clear now/

Now that you've gone away/

All you needed was some space/



It was too much space//

This is a song about needing to get away from everything and then realising just how loud the silence can be.
