Listen to poem:

Andromeda

Fly me away to a place never reached
fly me away from here

fly me through space, or the atmosphere
fly away these thoughts that I think

Sometimes I sit a while all alone, just to wonder
times of better days to imitate better times
Sometimes I hide away when voices grow stronger
sometimes more than a while when I can't fake any pride

fly me away from here
perhaps to an island near
fly me away from here

Sometimes I sit a while all alone
to forget all the things that've heard
sometimes I sit a while like a child to be sober
But silence is louder than the words

fly me away, find me some place
a place where I cannot be found
fly me away my dear fly me away
where voices and choices aren't loud
