Go Away Lyrics


What is the point of suffering?
What is the purpose of joy?
Is it true that the winner dies
With the most toys?A lifetime spent for a dollar
A lifetime twisting in pain
A lifetime gone in an hour
A lifetime playing the gameI see the starving Africans on TV
I feel it has nothing to do with me
I sent my twenty dollars to Live-Aid
Ive aided my guilty conscience to go awayNow go away
Now go away
Now go away
Go awayI dont want anybody to touch me
I think everybody has AIDS
Whats the point in caring for you?
Youre gonna die anywayA lifetime searching for something
A lifetime going insane
A lifetime running from nothing

A life looking for someone to blameI see the starving Africans on TV
I feel it has nothing to do with me
I sent my twenty dollars to Live-Aid
Ive aided my guilty conscience to go awayNow go away
Now go away
Now go away
Go awayI see the starving Africans on TV
I feel it has nothing to do with me
I sent my twenty dollars to Live-Aid
And paid my guilty conscience to go awayI see the starving Africans on TV
I feel it has nothing to do with me
I sent my twenty dollars to Live-Aid
And paid my guilty conscience, now go awayNow go away
Now go away
Now go away
Go away, go away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Living Colour is a funk metal group formed in New York city in 1984. They signed to Epic Records in 1987 and released their first album, Vivid, in 1988.

Stylistically their music is a creative fusion influenced by guitar-based rock such as hardcore punk and heavy metal, and traditional African-American music such as jazz, funk, and hip-hop. They are linked to the funk metal/alternative metal movement of the late 1980s typified by bands such as Fishbone, Jane's Addiction, Primus, Faith No More, and 24-7 Spyz. They are best remembered for the hit Cult of Personality, which won a Grammy Award for best hard rock performance in 1989. They were also named Best New Artist at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards. The singer, Corey Glover, had a role in the movie 'Platoon', directed by Oliver Stone.

The first two albums bassist Muzz Skillings contributed to the music, before leaving in 1992 due to creative differences. They were inactive from 1995-2000, and since their return have operated as a regular touring unit, as well as releasing one new studio release, Collide0Scope, one compilation of b-sides & rarities, and one live album from their early performances at the now mythical CBGB's. All four have released solo albums and session work, Doug Wimbish and Will Calhoun also are in both Jungle Funk and Head>>Fake, Corey Glover is also doing musical theatre, Vernon Reid has several projects, and Wimbish also has returned to various projects related to his other longstanding collaborators Adrian Sherwood, Keith Leblanc, and Skip McDonald.

The band are set to release their new album, The Chair in the Doorway, on September 15th of this year on Megaforce.
