Cover art for Blow It All Away lyrics by Sia

1st stanza: Even after all I've learned about you and the world, after all this time, I always knew, from the very beginning that you were stupid and weak

2nd Stanza: (Note: I always heard the word "lies" as "lines", which would make sense, as the title "Blow it All Away" is a cocaine reference, but I'll provide interpretation to both...) With it being "lies": you're a liar, you'll lie to anyone, but you live in solitude? not so sure on this... With it being "lines": How is it that you can do so much cocaine? You're not picky about who you do it with, either. You live in the underground party scene... you're a fake.

3rd Stanza: Even if you had everything, I could never let you back into my life [underlying message: we were such good friends. what happened?]

4th Stanza: You're too busy doing coke, and you're [literally] blowing away everything you have.

5th and 6th Stanzas: If you die, I'll stall my own death and learn from your mistakes [by not doing cocaine] (again, not sure on this), I see and feel that you are not being brought down by anyone, not me, nor the drug.

Stanzas 7, 8, and 9: If you want to be destroyed by the drugs, it's your perrogitive, but I won't let it happen: I'll fight you to the core of the lies, but you won't let me, because you're so intent on blowing everything that you have going for you.

Stanzas 10-the end: If you want to be naive, that's fine, but eventually, you will be held accountable for your actions, and you must act your age, dropping that naiviety bull****, and if you don't you'll blow it all away, just like you're doing now.
