Away from Today

God knows I'm tired

Of fakin' my way through everyday

I don't feel inspired

Caught in the fray, can't get away

And it's a life that I thought wouldn't be worth livin'

It'd be nice to know what happens when I give in

But I get so distracted

Down the highway that leads me astray

All of my actions

I just wanna leave, let's see what happens

If I fill up all the gas in my old Nissan

Take out all of my savings, then I'm gone

I wanna go away from today

'Cause I'm lost in yesterday

And tomorrow's got a promise for me there

So I leave for a week and I

Watch my month repeat

Next year will be the better year for me

I wanna go away from today

'Cause I'm lost in yesterday

And tomorrow's got a promise for me there

So I leave for the week and I

Watch my month repeat

Next year will be the better year for me

They're like something from a movie scene

Across the state in my car

Memories from seventeen weigh heavy on my heart

But I gotta stay movin'

Or I risk losin' my mind

And I promise that I'm

Not running away

From my problems, I know

I will face them someday, I just

Can't sit still and watch my life slowly fade away

I wanna go away from today

'Cause I'm lost in yesterday

And tomorrow's got a promise for me there

So I leave for a week and I

Watch my month repeat

Next year will be the better year for me

I wanna go away from today

'Cause I'm lost in yesterday

And tomorrow's got a promise for me there

So I leave for the week and I

Watch my month repeat

Next year will be the better year for me
