Turned Away - Snarky Puppy

There once was a man he was so laid out and low, he said

«Come down here darling where everything is so slow»

She turned away

She came from a town, it was a lovely town

Where she had got to be young, but nobody was home

She turned away

She turned away

So she went to a world to find her bright busy life, and her

One true love was standing right by her side

She turned away

She turned away

She turned away

From one thing at a time

Without a second thought she would turn on a dime

And the reasons got smaller while the losses would climb

«It was all no good» she said;

«I gave it a try…»

There was a job that could lead to all of her dreams

But it wasn’t enough;

«it was not what it seemed»

She turned away

She turned away

She’d found her a friend who was so caring and nice

When she asked her a question didn’t like the advice

She turned away

She turned away

Turned away

Away from her home, away from her life, far from the drone

And it filled her with rage that she could not fight

It was useless and scary, she had locked herself tight…

And

In the silence of night as she wrestled her past

She caught her tilted reflection in the side of a glass

She turned away

She turned away

Turned away

She turned away

She was all wrong and everything was gone
