Turn Away
William Dorey
We lit the fire and watched it burning
We didn't try to put it out
A million ashes in the skyline
Carried to a place without,
All the things we hold so dear
And all the struggles with our peers
And the way,
We turn away, close our eyes
We left the scene and didn't look back
I can't describe how I felt
The crushing weight of my person
Made me wish of a place without
All the things we dream to be
And all the places that we've been
And how we turn away,
Close our eyes,
Turn away....
