17.Walk Away
I have been angry for so long-
I let you know.
Shoulda walked away when I was young-
I let you go.
I turned away,
But maybe I was wrong.
I've been polishing blame for so long now-
My pride and joy.
A bit of tragedy never hurt somehow-
This man became a boy.
You took the blame, but maybe I was wrong.
Walk away, now, and be gone.
You don't have to want to go on-
I can see it's killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Every angel had dirty hands;
Even Judas planned to just carry on.
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies.
You can walk away.
You had been silent for so long-
I let the world know.
I turned a bit of my pain into a song-
Then carried on.
You took my shame,
But baby, that was wrong.
Walk away, now, and be gone.
You don't have to want to go on-
Even when they're killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Every angel had dirty hands;
Even Judas planned to just carry on.
Just picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies.
You can walk away.
Now, and be strong-
Well, I know you can carry on.
Walk away, now, and be gone-
'Cause you don't have to want to
Carry all the pain inside you.
'Cause the blood in me is your blood-
Every time I fall.
Walk away, now, and be gone-
Even when it's killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Walk away, now, and be gone.
'Cause you know,
Even Judas planned to just carry on.
Still picking up the pieces
Of what lies behind those sorrowful lies.
You can walk away.
Now, and be strong-
You don't have to carry on.
(Walk away...)
Walk away, now, and be strong-
You don't have to wanna go on.
Walk away, now, and be strong-
You don't have to want to go on.
Walk away-
Walk away, now.
Walk away, now.
Oh...
You don't have to go on-
You don't have to be strong.
Walk away, now-
You can walk away.
