Trying to Get Away

Split up lovers

Oiling the wheels of friendship

But a 6 A.M. booty call always ruins it



Next time I will arrive

Police escorted at the scenery

And then the cops can't protect me

From my own machinery



Don't get me wrong, I still like your song

But it sounds a little too tragic

So let's raise the glass up high

To the magic going by



Well it ain't easy to do

But I'm trying to get away from you



Wreckage and ruins

It's all that I see

And I was hoping the devil in the alley

(?)



Will I stop the grieving

Will my future be blue

Will I be on the road to freedom

Wearing my new skin



But it ain't easy to do

But I'm trying to get away from you

But it ain't easy to do

But I'm trying to get away from you



And there were so many things that I still needed to say

But I was not going to say them anyway, anyhow

She's your lover now



Well it ain't easy to do

But I'm trying to get away from you

But it ain't easy to do

But I'm trying to get away from you
