Look Away

by Gabba Gabba Hey   Mar 6, 2008


Formulate your new plan
the one to hurt me
kill me hard with your hand
just thrust the knife and don't see

close your eyes to all you do
just hurt me deeply with your might
find a way to hurt me through and through
don't think of anything, refuse the light

go on, just throw away my life
throw away yours, over the noise you sing
make yourself a demon with your hateful knife
blindly moving, not knowing a thing

sit down and watch the dice fall
playing your life like a game, just soar
laugh when things turn out wrong, and stall
laugh when we all fall to the floor

look away when we all turn to you
don't think about the way we're all dying
shrug it off, it's nothing new
you don't care at all, just pretend we're lying

    To be honest, this isn't one of your best. I still see some potential in this, but given the recent awesomeness of your work, this sort of falls on the category, "close but no cigar"

    lovely words which resound with meaning and power, yet the beat which you created in the first stanza doesn't fit with the rest, it get's a bit chopped up.

    As always, the subject which you chosen is good, as it is wide and many people can relate to this, so good job:) but for me, not more than a four.
