Lookaway - James

I pretend that I know where I’m going

I pretend I know where I came from

Or the fear will engulf me completely

I chose to waltz this bridge of sighs

Act my age in an age of indifference

I’m as big as I can dream

I forget in the truth of my nature

I forget to forgive, so I look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

I can’t stop, so I carry on

I don’t trust God is on my side

Indirect as the gaze of a geisha

I’m still that lost and lonely child

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

Look away

All mirrors shattered

Poor plastic clown

All that really matters

You weren’t in the building when the walls came crashing down

All mirrors shattered

Poor plastic clown

All that really matters

You weren’t in the building when the walls came crashing down

All mirrors shattered

Poor plastic clown

All that really matters
