If you're gonna turn around and walk away
 I'm gonna make-believe I'm blind
I could have thought of the words to say
But it'd really been a waste of time
And letting go of the simple things makes it easy to stay alive 
But you don't understand and you'll just never know how I simply died 
inside

It must have been a long walk back to the station
After you let go of my hand
It must have been a long walk down that heart-aching
Road where I don't stand 
Though there seemed to be a moment of anticipation
When you fell in love all over again
It must have been a long walk away from me
The only choice you ever had 

When getting what you want means getting hurt
You'd be better off alone
When that fire within don't continue to burn 
You can forget what it needs to grow
I could pretend to hear but I've already heard
And I was only there to share your load
I guess you're right cause if you're unsure 
Then you need to be on your own

Must have been a long walk back to the station
After you let go of my hand
Must have been a long walk down that heart-aching
Road where I don't stand 
Though there seemed to be a moment of anticipation
When I fell in love all over again
It must have been a long walk away from me
The only choice you ever had 

"When times are tough there's just one thing we don't want to forget
There is worse than us and suffering runs deeper somewhere else"
For that moment there, when you almost cared it was the best I'd ever 
felt 
Now that I'm lying here and I'm sick with fear girl there's no one there 
to hear me shout

It must have been a long walk back to the station
After you let go of my hand
It must have been a long walk down that heart-aching
Road where I don't stand 
Though there seemed to be a moment of anticipation
When I fell in love all over again
It must have been a long walk away from me
The only choice you ever had 
Must have been a long walk away from me
The only choice you ever had
