Franz Ferdinand - Walk Away lyrics

Innocence for pride, crush the end within my stride Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leader I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away Mascara bleeds a blackened tear Oh, and I am cold, yes I'm cold, but not as cold as you are I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, hey, hey Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? No buildings will fall down Why don't you walk away? No quake will split the ground Why don't you walk away? The sun won't swallow the sky Why don't you walk away? Statues will not cry Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away? Why 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, you walking away Mascara bleeds into my eye Oh, and I'm not cold, I am old, at least as old as you are And as you walk away, oh as you walk away And as you walk away, my headstone crumbles down As you walk away, the Hollywood winds will howl As you walk away, the Kremlins falling Oh, as you walk away, Radio 4 is static As you walk away, oh, as you walk away Oh, as you walk away, oh, as you walk away, hey
