silent groaning on the floor
slight clicking out the light
gentle squeaking of the door
i am off in the night

away away
nothing's left to say
i am far away

kicking empty cans
just around the corner
maybe you look on me
as a lonesome mourner
while i'm drifting off
along distant shores
think i'm nothing but this tin
because i don't feel anymore

was it meant for me
when you soared from that pole
can you see what i can't see
a resting place for my soul

away away
nothing's left to say
i am far away

kicking empty cans
just around the corner
maybe you look on me
as a lonesome mourner
while i'm drifting off
along distant shores
think i'm nothing but this tin
because i don't feel anymore

green feather on the ground
he's been watching you
proclamation all around:
"only passing through!

away away
nothing's left to say
i am far away

far away from now
sorrows and grief
way up in the sky
you give me relief
like the way you are floating
conquers gravitation
makes me overcome
this leaden stagnation
kicking empty cans
just around the corner
maybe you look on me
as a lonesome mourner
while i'm drifting off
along distant shores
think i'm nothing but this tin
because i don't feel anymore
