Walk Away

---- ----



we use to walk in each other arms, "one on one,"

that's what you said. now the moon is a sliver in our

eye, we stumble bleeding on the broken glass.



chorus: there's too much repetition, you know you're

past the point of sane. all this broken glass

you left behind, won't let you make a clean,

clean walk away.



now we're crossing from the sacred ground, where we

once held each other, each other's names. when the

words are sparse, we feel we're so profound, but babe

you know all i feel, i feel so ashamed.



there was a time when we gave everything, and it was

true, true enough to bleed. but now you feel that

you've got nothing left. if there's nothing to lose, then

there's nothing to gain. walk away.



you know i'd still hold you, if i could, its hard not to

try and change try to change your mind. i'm a pillar of

salt, i want you to understand. this is the last time,

the time i ever look behind. walk away.
