The Avett Brothers - Apart From Me lyrics

I was scared but I couldn't admit it Hatred planted out of fear Fight or flight, no choice but to hit it The road, it calls on me my dear I was lost as lost can be Being praised for being found All that praise got lost on me As a mood swing was headed down Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I'm going The part you'll see How true it is and how back then It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it Your touch was nothing more Than a child's goodbye and hello It always left me feeling Worse when it was time to go Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I'm going The part you'll see How true it is and how back then It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it And most of us out there got fooled Cause the gold it glittered in the night We chased it fast like drunk buffoons The banker lived the artist died And all our clothes were washed in gray All our buildings and our cars As the fluorescent light of day Bleached the sky and took the stars Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I'm going The part you'll see How true it is and how back then It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it
