Abney Park - Away From the Things of Man lyrics
[Abney Park - Away From the Things of Man lyrics]
Out past the pavement
Out past the cobblestones
Out past the factories
Where we can be all alone
I see the trees, and
I see the waterfalls and
I see the riverbanks
And I want to see it all
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Out past the rusting cars
Out past the firelines
Out past the traffic lights
When we can forget our times
I see the mountains and
I see the fireflies and
I see the empty space
Where we can forget our lives
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
No one to tell you where to go
Where to stand
No one to say what is good and what is bad
The laws never change and
The neighbors are clean
The waters are blue and the trees are green
I want to be where I see the whole sky
Where the animals run and the birds can fly
No one would dare try to change the laws
For they'd suffer the wings and
The hooves and the paws
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
No one to tell you where to go
Where to stand
No one to say what is good and what is bad
The laws never change and
The neighbors are clean
The waters are blue and the trees are green
I want to be where I see the whole sky
Where the animals run and the birds can fly
No one would dare try to change the laws
For they’d suffer the wings and
The hooves and the paws
Out past the cobblestones
Out past the factories
Where we can be all alone
I see the trees, and
I see the waterfalls and
I see the riverbanks
And I want to see it all
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Out past the rusting cars
Out past the firelines
Out past the traffic lights
When we can forget our times
I see the mountains and
I see the fireflies and
I see the empty space
Where we can forget our lives
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
No one to tell you where to go
Where to stand
No one to say what is good and what is bad
The laws never change and
The neighbors are clean
The waters are blue and the trees are green
I want to be where I see the whole sky
Where the animals run and the birds can fly
No one would dare try to change the laws
For they'd suffer the wings and
The hooves and the paws
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
Away, away away away from the things of man
No one to tell you where to go
Where to stand
No one to say what is good and what is bad
The laws never change and
The neighbors are clean
The waters are blue and the trees are green
I want to be where I see the whole sky
Where the animals run and the birds can fly
No one would dare try to change the laws
For they’d suffer the wings and
The hooves and the paws
