Down & Away Lyrics - Henry Rollins

Well I close my eyes and I look inside 

Well I realize I'm a bad case 

Well I'm at the last place that I wanna be 

I open my eyes and I wanna get away 

Push me, pull me, ... ... ... and I wanna run, I wanna hide 

And I can't get away, I can't get away 

And I can't get in, I can't get out 

I can't get to myself, so I can't get to you 

And I can't get close when I get close to you 

And I can't get through myself so I can't get to you 

There's an ego followin' the way I feel 

The closer I get, the farther away I feel 

I can't get in and I can't get out 

Why don't you touch me so I can feel it 

I want you to touch me so I can feel it 

I'm dead as I look to your eyes 

I'm a prisoner trapped in life 

I am the loser in the game I play 

I am the garbage that I throw away 

I'm alone in the place I stay 

And I can't understand why I can't get in and I can't get out 

The closer I get the farther away you feel 

The closer you get the farther away I feel 

The closer I get the farther away you feel 

The closer you get the farther away I feel 

I can't get close, I can't get close, I can't, I can't get it 

I can't get close to you 

I've got thrown in a hole 

Down and away, down, down, down, down and away 

Down and away, away, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down 

Down, down, down 

Away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away 

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down and away 

Down, down, down and away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, away, 

Away, away, away, away, away
