Turn, turn away
From the sound of your own voice,
Calling no one, just a silence.
Learn to see you at the edge,
Fall off the avalanche,
Turn away.
Hold, hold the light
That fixes you in time,
Keeps you under,
Takes you over the wall
That love divides between waking and slumber,
Turn away.
Turn, turn away
From the weight of your own past,
It's measure for the devil,
And betray the lack of change,
Once you have spoken,
Turn away.
