One of us is gonna be here and 
 One of us is gonna be running 
 Off alone into the great unknown 
 You're not me, you're a model of freedom 
 All you need are your kicks when you need 'em 
 Come and go, caught that slow alright 
    With one hand off the side 
 We get farther away in the blink of an eye   
 And it's the time we waste 
 Swallowed into space 
 It's the time it takes to blow away 
 To blow away   
 Hey, hey you, yeah you gotta be leaving, 
 Say what you want, what you say, say anything 
 No one knows just how deep it goes 
 We are old in your teenaged tyranny 
 And all you need is a hunger to feed 
 I've got my own secrets though, say what?   
 With a heart full of mess and lore 
 We are doomed but we wanted more   
 It's the ride we take 
 The many winged escape 
 It's the bough we break to blow away 
 And we blow away   
 One of us is now retreating 
 You knocked me down so hard I'm seeing a thousand stars 
 Come out where you are 
 'Cause I won't ever be caught crying 
 And I will not be taken lying down 
 It blows into smoke   
 The time we waste 
 Swallowed into space 
 It's the time it takes to blow 
 It's the ride we take   
 The many winged escape 
 It's the bough we break to blow away 
 It's the times we say that no one's gonna take your place 
 It's a mistake to blow away 
 We blow away
