Rook 22 - Walk Away Lyrics

I don't like moving backwards
Or driving home down a crowded road
Or late night drinking when I'm all alone
So turn the page to a new chapter
Cause I need space to lighten up the load
I bury hatchets when the trail runs cold
And I keep weighing every factor
But as time passes and the paint runs dry
My anxious thoughts are eating me alive
And I've tried to silence the chatter
But I'm hiding behind this fractured smile
And it's followed me for most my life
And I'm done wasting all my time
I've come undone the well's run dry
You cut me down and now I pray for rain
And I can't be your everything
But God I've tried I just can't seem to
Love myself enough to walk away
To walk away
Don't tell me how to cope
It's out of my control
I don't want to be alone
I think it's time I change
(Time I change)
It's not about who got it right
I don't want to live my life
Chasing things I'll never find
I think I'll walk away
I'll walk away
Cause you cannot change
Say you'll try but you stay the same
Never thought that I'd take the blame
For everything oh everything's a game
I don't want to play
I'm so tired and I can't see straight
And I'm done so I'll set it all to flames
I set it all to flames
And I'm done wasting all my time
I've come undone the well's run dry
You cut me down and now I pray for rain
And I can't be your everything
But God I've tried I just can't seem to
Love myself enough to walk away
I'll go beyond the county lines
I'm searching for some peace of mind
I don't know when but I'll find it someday
And all I've got to heal is time
These scrapes and cuts that kept me blind
To all the reasons why I shouldn't stay
And I'm done wasting all my time
I've come undone the well's run dry
You cut me down and now I pray for rain
(Now I pray for rain)
And I can't be your everything
But God I've tried I just can't seem to
Love myself enough to walk away
To walk away
I'll walk away
I'll walk away
