Track #7: Walk Away

I walked away from the hurt and the pain
I walked away cuz I knew
Too many stories I’ve heard to this day
Too many lies have come true

But I always try to keep an open mind
For you to see through

I walked away from the hurt and the pain
I walked away cuz I knew
Too many lives that I’ve seen go my way
Too many lives I’ve lived through

But I still can’t lie, it’s the world outside
That’s why, that’s why

Somebody tell me
When can I open my eyes?

I walked away from the hurt and the pain
I walked away cuz I knew
All of these promises that end in dismay
Have turned my heart cold to you

But I hear you cry in the air tonight
And I feel, again
I hear you cry and I’m hypnotized
Tonight, tonight

Somebody tell me
When can I open my eyes?
Somebody save me
When will the world realize?

I walked away from the hurt and the pain
I walk away and it’s true
I hear you cry but I close up my mind
Won’t let the truth pass on through

But I hear you cry in the air tonight
And I feel, again
I hear you cry and I’m hypnotized
Tonight, tonight
And the more I try
To believe the lie that we’re fine
The less I can do
I said, the more I try
To believe the lie that we’re fine
The less I can do

Somebody tell me
When can I open my eyes?
Somebody save me
When will the world realize?
Somebody show me
Because the lives that we lead can’t disguise
Somebody hold me
As the feeling inside of me dies

Dies away
Dies away
Dies away
Dies away
