English poetry

Walk Away

Then she said
"If you ever try to lean on me too heavily
I'll step aside and watch you fall
We'll make each other look so small
Let's either find another way
Or bang our heads into the wall and walkaway
Do you have to get this close before it hits?
You've always known just how much
People are a part of why we've now not got the heart to say
I'll leave it, if you will, let's walkaway"
Thought it was different
But it all turned out the same so so
Promised myself I'd never go through it again
Now that every love song bears the same familiar strain of
Walkaway before I
Do something stupid
Walkaway before these threats turn into
One of us could do it
Walkaway before I say
"It's getting too much"
Walkaway, walkaway
Before one of us cracks up
Did you have to get that close before it hit?
You'd always known just how much
People are a part of why we've now not got the heart to say
I'll leave it if you will, let's walkaway
Thought it was different
But it all turned out the same so so
Promised myself I'd never go through it again
Now that every love song bears the same familiar strain of
Walkaway before I
Do something stupid
Walkaway before these threats turn into
One of us could do it
Walkaway before I say
"It's getting too much"
Walkaway, walkaway
Before both of us crack up
Walkaway before I
Do something stupid
Walkaway before these threats turn into
One of us could do it
Walkaway before I say
"It's getting too much"
Walkaway, walkaway
Before both of us crack up
Walkaway before I
Do something stupid
Walkaway before these threats turn into
One of us could do it
Walkaway before I say
"It's getting too much"
Walkaway, walkaway
Before both of us crack up
Walkaway before I
Do something stupid
Walkaway before these threats turn into
One of us could do it
Walkaway before I say
