[glow=red,2,300]The Hunger Games - World Away (Emery)[/glow]
Lyrics:
You wanna see me dissappear well it starts here.
I'm trying my best just to say what you don't want to hear,
but its alright.
You can cover your- cover your ears.
I face my fears just once a year.
The feeling I get when I want to return everything
that's in my life.
I'll be busting at the seams.
Its a gamble either way,
so play your cards.
Its another tidal wave.
I'll be waiting with my eyes closed.
No I don't want to be the one who lives a lie but never knew it
was just a world away from where I could feel like I've never felt before,
so lock the door.
You wanna see me dissappear well it starts here.
I'm trying my best just to say what you don't want to hear,
but its alright.
You can cover your- cover your ears.
Its a gamble either way,
so play your cards.
Its another tidal wave.
I'll be waiting with my eyes closed.
No I don't want to be the one who lives a lie but never knew it,
was just a world away from where I could feel like I've never felt before,
so lock the door.
You're the one who told me
to pack up all my things and leave in the morning.
Its just a world away from here and I will never bother you no more and thats for sure.
Take me alive! (You never-You never)
Take me alive! (You never-You never)
No I don't want to be the one who lives a lie but never knew it
was just a world away from where I could feel like I've never felt before,
so lock the door.
You're the one who told me
to pack up all my things and leave in the morning.
Its just a world away from here and I will never bother you no more and thats for sure.

line 3 - They are too afraid that what they have been going through was all for nothing.
Stanza 5:

Bridge (Take me alive!):
