Away

One day some day you'll know when
that will be the day you'll see then
storming tantrums flaring tempers raging
this time you'll be the one giving in
those loving sisters laughing at you
because your face is screaming red
all you ever wanted was to do your own thing
but now you're too old to get your own way
its time you grow up and face your worst fears
the daily grind, the hands of time
a paycheck in two weeks
no more staying up too late
please just make it all go away
away..away...away...away
the morning clock seems so loud
its too far for you to reach
you get up out of bed still groggy from online games
the anger overcomes you before you know its there
your sisters in the bathroom she wont come out
she says she just needs some more time to comb her hair
you know she is just doing what you use to do to her
now you're mad because you don't think she care
could this be karma coming after you like your poor dad said
you didn't care back then you wouldn't let him in your head
now its all coming down those words upon your brain
please just make it all go away
away..away...away...away
on the way to work you pass some friends
hanging out at your favorite place
they all want you to go with them to have some fun
storming tantrums flaring tempers raging
this time you'll be the one giving in
those so called friends laugh at you
they just don't seem to understand
all you ever wanted was to do your own thing
but now you're too old to get your own way
its time you grow up and face your worst fears
the daily grind, the hands of time
a paycheck in two weeks
no more staying up too late
please just make it all go away
away..away...away...away
go away...go away...go away
away...away...away
away...away
away
