Trying to Pull Myself Away Lyrics


Breaking up in the station, a final train
I don't even know if I'll ever see you again
Is it a choice that we even have?Bang, bang down on piano 'til I smash the keys
Living alone with the melodies
Everything's gone and I don't know whereAnd the rule of thumb don't apply anymore
'Cause the house is burningI'm trying to pull myself away
I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
I'm trying to pull myself awayLately when I get lost there's this thing I know
Even the dogs have somewhere to go
Everything comes if you just let it beWork, work, brighten the corners that'll never see
Untangle the thoughts that you know what they mean
I hope that the answer didn't come too lateAnd the rule of thumb don't apply on me
'Cause the tables are turningI'm trying to pull myself away
I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
I'm trying to pull myself away
Caught in a pattern and I can't escape, can't escapeEverything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone
Trying to pull myself away
Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's goneEverything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone

Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone
Trying to pull myself awayEverything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone
Everything's gone, everything's gone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Vocalist and guitarist for Irish rock group The Frames. Hansard quit school at age 13 to begin busking on local Dublin streets. He first came to public attention as guitar player 'Outspan Foster' in the Alan Parker film The Commitments, a role he subsequently regretted, believing it distracted from his music career. In 2003 he presented the first series of Other Voices: Songs from a Room, which showcased Irish music talent on RTÉ. He released The Swell Season, his first solo album, on April 21st 2006, in collaboration with a Czech singer and multiinstrumentalist Markéta Irglová, Marja Tuhkanen and Bertrand Galen.

Glen recently starred in the movie 'Once' alongside Markéta Irglová which won a prestigious Sundance Audience Award in 2007, as well as the 2008 Academy Award for Best Originial Song (for "Falling Slowly"), beating out three songs from the Disney musical "Enchanted" and one song from "August Rush" (both were heavy contenders). Its Irish release took place on 23rd March 2007 and appeared in cinemas further afield later in the year.

Glen's latest album, Rhythm and Repose, was released in June 2012.
