Aware, Rust and Repair Lyrics
Away
How hard can it be away?
I promise I'll be just fine
Avoiding the paths you take
You have to try to make this easy
You have to try for me
Sometimes I'm scared that things could be
So much better than this
What's best is not right
Sometimes I wish that we could be
So much closer than this
But I won't look up when you walk away
Away
Just tell me you'll stay away
It's so hard to act surprised
You never look down when I'm gone
You have to try to make this easy
You have to try for me
Sometimes I'm scared that things could be
So much better than this
What's best is not right
Sometimes I wish that we could be
So much closer than this
But I won't look up when you walk away
How hard can it be away?
I promise I'll be just fine
Avoiding the paths you take
You have to try for me
Sometimes I'm scared that things could be
So much better than this
What's best is not right
Sometimes I wish that we could be
So much closer than this
But I won't look up when you walk away
Just tell me you'll stay away
It's so hard to act surprised
You never look down when I'm gone
You have to try for me
Sometimes I'm scared that things could be
So much better than this
What's best is not right
Sometimes I wish that we could be
So much closer than this
But I won't look up when you walk away

Away Just tell me you'll stay away It's so hard to act surprised You never look down when I'm gone
...Meaning she doesn't miss him when he's gone..? That's how I see it..
One of the saddest, but most beautiful acoustic track. It's all about relationships, deciding what is better for everyone, especially with the people we care about most. Sometimes separation is the solution, maybe the other person carrying around your baggage is too much of a burden for both of you. "What's best is not right" is definitely the most powerful and heart-wrenching line in the whole song.
DLD can make the saddest of songs so beautiful.
its so true, that this song is so beautiful. its like how people say its music to my ears, well this is music to my heart. even those times are over, i can still live it thru their music. daphne loves derby you are the greatest.
It's simple.
A song about the ending of a failed relationship.
One person, feeling broken and alone after it's ending, is trying to avoid the other at all costs to spare them the pain.
And the other is moving on, already taking different path's out of the other persons life. Not looking back at the fact it hurts they're ex-companion harshly, but not aware either.
The one who's struggling isn't suprised by the fact the other has moved on so fast, but at the fact the other person doesn't understand how much it hurts them.
I know the experience first hand..
