Franz Ferdinand – Walk Away (Htth Edit) Lyrics

Walk Away (Htth Edit) Lyrics by Franz Ferdinand

I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I’m strong now I know that I’m a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear
And I am cold
Yes, I’m cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away

Why don’t you walk away?
Why don’t you walk away?
Why don’t you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
(Don’t you walk away)
No quake will split the ground
(Won’t you walk away?)
The sun won’t swallow the sky
(Won’t you walk away?)
Statues will not cry
(Don’t you walk away)
Why don’t you walk away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye
And I’m not cold
I am old
At least as old as you are

And as you walk away
As you walk away
As you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood wind’s a howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin’s falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is static
As you walk away
