MUNA - Stayaway Lyrics






If I see my old friends, we'll go out dancing
If we go out dancing, then we'll go to the bar
If we go to the bar, then there's gonna be drinking
If I drink, I wanna see where you are
So I don't see my old friends, I don't go dancing
I don't do most things I used to do
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it
I did most things to get to you

No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away

Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away

If I go driving, then I'll put on music
If I put on music, then I'll play your song
If I play your song, then I think I'll lose it
End up pulled up at the front of your lawn
So I don't go driving, no, I just stay in
I don't do most things I used to do
'Cause every moment is a fork in the road
And all my roads lead back to you (You, you, you)

No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away

Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away

If I turn off the light, then I might start thinking
If I start thinking, I'll think of the time when
You said that you love me, you said I was perfect
You said you were sorry, you said you were selfish
If I don't stop it, before I know it
All the bad things never happened
You never lied or treated me bad and
If you did, then you'll wish you hadn't
Start believing you were right and
I was being too dramatic
So I gotta leave the light on for tonight
Just so I can stay away

No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
Any little misstep, I'll be at your doorstep
Talking 'bout forgiveness, giving you my heart back
Just so you can break it one more time before I say
I gotta stay away

Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away

  39. J.... W....

    🖖🖖

  40. T.... ....

    I feel like MUNA is the modern version of the Cranberries

  41. T.... ....

    Katie Gavs is a complete bombshell 😍

  42. T.... ....

    I’ve loved MUNA ever since I first heard Winterbreak 😇

  43. C.... M....

    my new fave on the album

  44. s.... ....

    god i cant wait to say ive been here since 2016, :) MUNA is gettin big and im so happy

  46. M.... R....

    Love it. I wanna live inside your videos

  47. K.... B....

    Love this so much. Love these women so much. The music it just... it!

  48. K.... ....

    Less than a week before the London gig! HYPE

  49. C.... M....

    This song makes me hurt and heal at the same time

  50. T.... R....

    You captured me way back on "Setlist" with your different sound and talent, I have listened to "About You" more times than I can count the last 2 years. Now this, you just mover the bar that much higher. The inspiration in your music has become addictive, never look back.

  51. D.... M....

    slowed version ! https://youtu.be/sb9xkS6K0Bk

  52. C.... C....

    Her vocal is so damn like Sia. And the way how she flows. But I have to admit that I really like this song. She is my treasure girl !

    C.... C....

    Matt Benson OMG YES, KATIE’S VOICE HAS BEEN COMPARED TO SELENA GOMEZ TOO

    C.... C....

    @Suraj Arvind There is no need to be rude. ;)

  53. S.... A....

    The song is delicious. I'll be checking for her album for sure

  54. c.... ....

    This early 90 vibes are really getting me.

  55. m.... ....

    Yammat FM approved!

    102|5 or yammat.fm

  56. R.... M....

    Please come to Italy..... Waiting for you !!!! You're awesome

  57. P.... S....

    Who gave you the right to release a song this good???

  58. l.... ....

    😭😭😭

  59. F.... .....

    Been streaming this song everyday but it's lowkey sad how it only has 49k views after 1 week+...ppl are really sleeping on MUNA :( This song is such a relatable heartbreak anthem

  60. M.... Q....

    Naomi McPherson looks so much like Natasha Lyonne, especially in 1:22
    I admire your music, love the song and the guitar is absolutely amazing.

  61. S.... J....

    🔥🔥🔥🔥

  62. a.... r....

    Since I listened MUNA for the very first time I haven't been disappointed about their music. I can surely say there is no song that don't love from MUNA. Every single song is hella amazing. Never get tired of them. ( Besides Jossete is so fuckng hot, I hav a damn crush on her)

  63. C.... ....

    They always have the best bridges omg

  64. a.... ....

    my fave song rn on repeat

  65. G.... ....

    This made me think of anxiety. When mine ws really bad I avoided everything that would make me feel emotion because it had similarities with my panic attacks. You look around yourself and wonder when you got so bad that you have no life.

  66. C.... ....

    I am happy they are back. I need them my whole life. They are amazing, I have been a fan since they started which is 3 years ago and I can’t stop loving them. They are addictive and pure art. They need more recognition because they are the most precious and rare artist in the industry😍😍😍😍🥰👏🏻❤️👏🏻🌙🤯

  67. s.... s....

    Love this song!

  68. H.... F....

    SEMPRE ME AJOELHAREI A ESSAS MENINAS

  69. M.... F....

    the production the lyrics omg THEY ATE THIS .

  70. S.... ....

    I like that Katie Gavin is not all tattooed up like most modern pop stars today which just makes them look like pieces of trash.

  71. S.... ....

    So far this is my new favorite song of yours MUNA and god knows I played your previous album to death.

  72. W.... C....

    These ladies are absolute pop MACHINES!!! hahaha this and number one fan are easily two of the best hits of the year.

  73. L.... A....

    I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! F*CK! <3 <3 <3

  74. J.... M....

    I’ve never related to a song 100% until now. 😩 It hurts. I feel a pain in my side

  75. S.... ....

    wow that first verse

  76. a.... _....

    Muna means penis in Finnish :)

  77. A.... C....

    Okay but I never noticed how beautiful Katie was bc I didn’t like the bangs, but holy hell, she is literally drop dead gorgeous. I’ve always loved her personality and the music but now I think I officially have a crush...

    Muna keeps getting better i first saw them live at subterranean in Chicago and it was like a homecoming show I remember the bands reaction to the crowd like they were just as excited as those of us who came to see them I can’t wait for the new album and tour

  89. M.... ....

    I often describe About U as "the world's best album of depressing lesbian breakup songs" and I'm happy to see you staying true to the brand. :) I'll be buying the new album on launch day, for sure.

    M.... ....

    Well, I don’t know how each band member identifies, but the songs have peak lesbian vibe.
