"Walk Away"

What do you do

When you know something's bad for you

And you still can't let go?

I was naive, your love was like candy

Artificially sweet, I was deceived by the wrapping

Got caught in your web, and I learned how to bleed

I was prey in your bed and devoured completely

Oh, and it hurts my soul, 'cause I can't let go

All these walls are caving in

I can't stop my sufferin'

I hate to show that I've lost control

'Cause I, I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

To walk away from, yeah

I need to get away from you

I need to walk away from you

Get away, walk away, walk away

I should have known that I was used for amusement (for amusement)

Couldn't see through the smoke, it was all an illusion

Now I've been licking my wounds (licking my wounds)

But the venom seeps deeper (deeper, deeper)

We both can seduce, but darling, you hold me prisoner (prisoner)

Oh-oh, I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

I'm addicted to your allure and I'm fiendin' for a cure

Every step I take leads to one mistake

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need, oh

I can't mend, this torn state I'm in

Getting nothing in return

What did I do to deserve

The pain of this slow burn?

And everywhere I turn

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

To walk away from, yeah

I need to get away from you

I need to walk away from you

Every time I try to grasp for air

I get smothered in despair, it's never over, over, oh

Oh

It seems I'll never wake from this nightmare

I let out a silent prayer, let it be over, over, ooh

Inside I'm screaming, begging, pleading no more, ah-ah

I don't know what to do

My heart has been bruised

So sad, but it's true

Each beat reminds me of you

Ooh, it hurts my soul 'cause I can't let go

All these walls are cavin' in

I can't stop my sufferin'

I hate to show that I've lost control, 'cause I

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need, oh

I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

I'm addicted to your allure

And I'm fiendin' for a cure, no hey

Every step I take leads to one mistake

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need, oh

I can't mend this torn state I'm in

Getting nothing in return

What did I do to deserve

The pain of this slow burn?

And everywhere I turn

I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

To walk away from, yeah

Yeah, mm, yeah

I said I need to get away from you

Need to walk away from you (ooh)

I need to get away from you

Need to walk away from you (only thing I need to do)

I need to get away from you

Need to walk away from you (is walk away from you)

I need to get away from you

Need to walk away from you

I need to get away from you (yeah)

Need to walk away from you

I need to get away from you

Need to walk away from you

I need to get away from you (walk away)

Need to walk away from you

I need to get away from you (walk away)

Need to walk away from you
