Mark Eitzel - Always Turn Away lyrics

There are pools across the tidal plain That look like white sheets draped across The vacuum beyond our conversation The thread of our lives unraveling Always turning away Away Away The tide makes all our decisions for us It breathes just like a pearl accordion The water softly inches for your eyes Kisses the soft skin under your disguise Always turning away Away Away Always facing away Away Away Under the sun we flood across the shallows And lay on our backs Gleaming like liquid pearls The wind and the light Give us up a show of hands Gives us to any justice that'll have us Always turning away Away Away Always facing away Away Away
