| If you walk away, I'll walk away | |
| First tell me which road you will take | |
| I don't want to risk our paths crossing some day | |
| So you walk that way, I'll walk this way | |
| And the future hangs over our heads | |
| And it moves with each current event | |
| Until it falls all around like a cold steady rain | |
| Just stay in when it's looking this way | |
| And the moon's laying low in the sky | |
| Forcing everything metal to shine | |
| And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case | |
| They argue walk this way, now walk this way | |
| And Laura's asleep in my bed | |
| As I'm leaving she wakes up and says | |
| “I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave | |
| Baby don't go away, come here†| |
| And there's kids playing guns in the street | |
| And ones pointing his tree branch at me | |
| So I put my hands up I say “enough is enough, | |
| If you walk away, I'll walk away†| |
| And he shot me dead | |
| I found a liquid cure | |
| From my landlocked blues | |
| It'll pass away like a slow parade | |
| It's leaving but I don't know how soon | |
| And the world's got me dizzy again | |
| You think after 22 years I'd be used to the spin | |
| And it only feels worse when I stay in one place | |
| So I'm always pacing around or walking away | |
| I keep drinking the ink from my pen | |
| And I'm balancing history books up on my head | |
| But it all boils down to one quotable phrase | |
| If you love something, give it away | |
| A good woman will pick you apart | |
| A box full of suggestions for your possible heart | |
| But you may be offended and you may be afraid | |
| But don't walk away, don't walk away | |
| We made love on the living room floor | |
| With the noise in background of a televised war | |
| And in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say | |
| “If we walk away, they'll walk away†| |
| But greed is a bottomless pit | |
| And our freedom's a joke | |
| We're just taking a piss | |
| And the whole world must watch the sad comic display | |
| If you're still free start running away | |
| Cause we're coming for you! | |
| I've grown tired of holding this post | |
| I feel more like a stranger each time I come home | |
| So I'm making a deal with the devils of faith | |
| Saying “let me walk away, please†| |
| You'll be free child once you have died | |
| From the shackles of language and immeasurable time | |
| And then we can trade places, play musical grace | |
| Till then walk away, walk away | |
| So I'm up at dawn | |
| Putting on my shoes | |
| I just want to make a clean escape | |
| I'm leaving but I don't know where to | |
| I know I'm leaving but I don't know where to |
| If you walk away, I' ll walk away | |
| First tell me which road you will take | |
| I don' t want to risk our paths crossing some day | |
| So you walk that way, I' ll walk this way | |
| And the future hangs over our heads | |
| And it moves with each current event | |
| Until it falls all around like a cold steady rain | |
| Just stay in when it' s looking this way | |
| And the moon' s laying low in the sky | |
| Forcing everything metal to shine | |
