Magnetic Fields All You Ever Do Is Walk Away Lyrics

Sad as a painted clown, a beautiful boy in an ugly town
but when your circus closes down don't walk away from me
you've been asleep too long, the birds are bruises in the
dawn
the pounds of flesh between us stretch as far as you can
see

But all you ever do is walk away and I know if you'd only
go slow

you could see what it means to be making the scene with
me
But all you ever do is walk away and I think if you tried you could find a little time
for the life I can see in your eyes, don't go. Don't go.

Sometimes you just explode and no one alive can break
your code
You have a language of your own, an unconnected road
The people you called your friends, the places you won't
go again
The decades lost in finding them, you'll have to let them
go.

But all you ever do is walk away and I know if you'd only
go slow
