How long are you going away for

Music & lyrics by Emilie Blom

 

I try and fight the demons everyday of the week

you are playing hide with me  I play seek

it’s a game I don’t feel like playing

 

I try and fight the demons everyday of the week

I know you’ve got a secret tucked up your sleeve

is it worth the pain is it worth the pain

 

My mind begins to waver

how long are you going away for

I look away when I hear the front door slam

I didn’t know that I lost you somewhere

 

I watch you from afar, tied up in knots

you can’t ignore we changed a lot

all we fought for things we achieved

why don’t you let me join when you decide to leave

you’re going to hurt me and suffer of my sins

you’re the reason for my life and source of all my grins

I try and fight the demons every day of the week

I want to win you over we’re alike and both unique

you try and slip away without a trace

 

My mind begins to waver

how long can I make you stay for

I look away when I hear the front door slam

I didn’t know that I lost you somewhere

 

I watch you from afar tied up in knots

you can’t ignore we changed a lot

all we fought for things we achieved

why don’t you let me join when you decide to leave
