I Went Away

I went away for a while
I took my soul with me
I walked a lonely mile
Or two, or three

And I went away with me
For a while I could not see
the real me
Crack a smile through my own mouth

Boy, I returned from the void
Inspired, but so damn afraid
No, more like annoyed;
You know how ourselves are
hardest to save

So I ran away from me
For a time, for a spate of weeks
I reviled my fate gone wild
