You - Me = U / S by Jersey D GibsonWalk away... if you can;
Take one step at a time.
Walk away... if you dare;
please don't look back at me.
Walk away... with head held high;
let your lies walk out with you.
Walk away... away from me;
every step you take is a wish granted...
Now don't look back as I crumble,
I'm shattered, I'm hurt, but I'm fine.
Don't look back as I'm pulled under,
in my grief there is a lifeline.
Walked away... on your own;
what more can you ask of me?
Walked away... by yourself;
what more can you say to me?
I walked away... staggering;
there's no doctor for what you've done.
You walked away... as fast as you can;
the further you get, the better I feel...
Don't look closely as I smile,
behind my teeth is a scream that's there.
No don't look back as I try to deal,
burnt bridges cannot be repaired.
Walk away... walk out on me;
walk yourself out with your life.
Walk away... walk out strongly;
don't you dare ask me a single thing.
You walked away... without me;
what did you expect for this to be?
You walked away... what about me;
a spinning spiral uncontrollably...
Don't dare ask questions as I pass,
the feeling's gone and so's my patience.
Don't reflect on what we had,
you smile too widely when you say you're sad.
