Everyone Moves Away Lyrics - Singles - Posies

Please forgive, for they know not what they've done 

And if they did, they'd surely resurrect their trust 

Promises were made to break and the family kept its end 

And now your answer, my friend 

Is blowing in one head and out the other 

But you will find yourself 

You will recognize and realize, even when you can't forget 

The times they tried you, things denied you 

Inside the big nameless house 

From which everyone moves away, everyone moves away 

Growing up in severed states of mind 

Can cause you to to blind more than twice 

And now we're hurt by the words we've never said 

The wounds you never bled 

Just aggravate your head until they've gone 

But you will like yourself 

You will verify and vocalize even when you can't forget 

That when you stayed you, they betrayed you 

Inside the big nameless house 

From which everyone moves away, everyone moves away 

Try to wipe away the traces of people, places, childhood spaces 

Etched upon your memory, like the way that we were raised 

In our backyard we were left no time to think 

The blood that turned to ink spelled neglect 

Now there's no sun and the grass is overgrown 

The sacred seed they've sown is utterly alone and scared to death 

But you will free yourself 

You will cut the cord and cauterize and if you ever feel an urge 

To look behind you, let this remind you 

We both grew up in the same house 

From which everyone moves away, everyone moves away 

Everyone moves, everyone moves, everyone moves away
