"Cranes In The Sky" lyrics

"Cranes In The Sky"
(originally by Solange)

I tried to drink it away
I tried to put one in the air
I tried to dance it away
I tried to change it with my hair

I ran my credit card bill up
Thought a new dress would make it better
I tried to work it away
But that just made me even sadder

I tried to keep myself busy
I ran around in circles
Think I made myself dizzy
I slept it away, I sexed it away
I read it away
Away

Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away

Well, it's like cranes in the sky
Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky
Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds

I tried to run it away
Thought then my head'd be feeling clearer
I traveled seventy states
Thought moving 'round'd make me feel better

I tried to let go my lover
Thought if I was alone then maybe I could recover
To write it away or cry it away (Don't you cry, baby)
Away

Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away

But it's like cranes in the sky
Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal clouds
Yeah, it's like cranes in the sky
Sometimes, I don't wanna feel those metal-

Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away, away
