I am going away, I am going down I am going away, I am going down
Sifting through a memory before it fades away Adolescent secrecy, a million words astray
I can't remember happiness, I thrive within the dark The security of a loneliness is a veil that keeps my calm
By the way, I'm doing fine I have a place to stay, just behind the sunshine And by the way, I don't need sympathy I have a place to lay, I have more than you can see
I walk the streets alone at night, it helps to ease my mind I lay me down come the morning light and leave all woes behind
