“World Away” Song Lyrics

From the album, I'm Only a Man, by Emery

You want to see me disappear, well it starts here.
I’m trying my best not to say
What you don’t want to hear.
But it’s alright,
You can cover your (cover your) ears.
I face my fears just once a year.
It’s the feeling I get
When I want to return everything that’s in my life.
I’ll be busting at the seams.

I’ll gamble either way you play your cards.
It’s another tidal wave.
But I’ll be waiting with my eyes closed.

No, I don’t want to be the one who lives a lie,
but never knew it was just a world away from
where I could feel like I’ve never felt before,
so lock the door.

You want to see me disappear, well it starts here.
I’m trying my best not to say
What you don’t want to hear.
But it’s alright,
You can cover your (cover your) ears.

I’ll gamble either way you play your cards.
It’s another tidal wave.
But I’ll be waiting with my eyes closed.

No, I don’t want to be the one who lives a lie,
but never knew it was just a world away from
where I could feel like I’ve never felt before,
so lock the door.

You’re the one who told me to pack up all my
Things and leave in the morning.
It’s just a world away from here, and I will never
bother you no more, and that’s for sure.

You’ll never take me alive.

Emery How does a successful band, with thousands of devoted fans, hundreds of amazing live shows, a debut that shattered all expectations and spectacular musical skill follow-up its debut? The answer is simply The Question. Emery's second album for Tooth & Nail, The Question has already exceeded expectations - in fact, the release debuted in August 2005 at #45 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. No easy feat for a band that, just four years ago, had barely formed.
