I've got a clockwork heart. It works just the same but it sets me apart And it's running away In the hope that it mends. It left me a note, says it'll be back one day. Away, away, away.
The world is just a box Full of socks and pebbles and pennies and clocks And I'm running away It makes me feel better, With the moon in my eyes and the stars in my hair. Away, away, away.
We are but marble pawns Waltzing through life as we cause ourselves harm And I'm running away With your scent on my sweater, The wind at my back and wings on my heels. Away, away, away.
Perhaps I'll be back in a while With my clock-work heart and a pearl-button smile But now I'm running away It's only what's best It's just like they said it would be. Away, away, away.
