Far Away

I woke up and threw up this morning
she broke up with me last night
I walked away unhappily
too sad to fight
I drove home as the tears rolled down my face
I just wanna drive to any place
far away from here
far away from her
far away from here
far away from her
My eyes are flash flooding
as a budding emptiness fills me up
I can feel my heart tearing
like paper soaked in tears
I don’t know where I’m heading
just as long as it’s
far away from here
far away from her
far away from here
far away from her
Curse this truly loving
I should have guessed this all before
But how could I have known
tonight she’d be shoving me
out the door?
I don’t know where I’m going
I just hope it’s far away
I don’t really care
I’m throwing it all away
