Part From Me - The Avett Brothers

I was scared but I couldn’t admit it Hatred planted out of fear

Fight or flight, no choice but to hit it The road, it calls on me my dear

I was lost as lost can be Being praised for being found

All that praise got lost on me As a mood swing was headed down

Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I’m going

The part you’ll see

How true it is and how back then

It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it Your touch was nothing more

Than a child’s goodbye and hello

It always left me feeling

Worse when it was time to go Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I’m going

The part you’ll see

How true it is and how back then

It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it And most of us out there got fooled

'Coz the gold it glittered in the night

We chased it fast like drunk buffoons

The banker lived the artist died

And all our clothes were washed in gray

All our buildings and our cars

As the fluorescent light of day

Bleached the sky and took the stars

Apart from me I would not dare take someone in love with me Where I’m going

The part you’ll see

How true it is and how back then

It possibly was impossible for you or me to know it
