Please don't forget me, I'm going away
I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky
Where they don't even know all about me
I just need to feel safe

I've got a thousand sweaters
And shoes and paintings to hide
The skeletons in my way
Don't ask where I'm going

I'm going away, I'm going my way
Finally it's my time to be lonely enough
Unloved and I can't wait, don't forget what I said
Don't forget my letter, every night I pray for you
I don't got a religion, isn't that something
I miss those days

I, I see that bottle, it's now ten years aged
I've got the marbles, I could sell for money
Got a pair of fresh shaved legs
Won't you baby, come with me?

I've got a extra space in my car
In my heart, in my mind
Look there's the passenger seat
By the boat that you gave
You don't know where I'm going

I'm going away, I'm going my way
Finally it's my time to be lonely enough
Unloved and I can't wait, don't forget what I said
Don't forget my letter, every night I pray for you
I don't got a religion, isn't that something?
I miss those days

Well he said, slow down, slow down
Think it over, we've all got wretched closets
A silly girl pride kills more than AIDS
Lately I say come on, I've thought it over
I don't wanna die here, I've no desire to get married

I can't read the others anymore
Alone, I must learn to race myself

I'm going away, I'm going my way
Finally it's my time to be lonely enough
Unloved and I can't wait, please forget what I said
Please forget my letter, every night I pray for you
I don't got a religion, isn't that something?
I miss those days

I, I'm not going halfway, I'll find my way
I, I, every night I pray for you
Don't believe in Heaven
Or that it could be a happy place
I, I'm going away
