...if you ever try to lean on me, too heavily,
i'll step aside and watch you fall
we'll make each other look so small
let's either find another way, or bang our
heads into the wall, and walk away

do you have to get this close before it hits?
you've always known just how much
people are a part of why
we've now not got the heart to say
i'll leave it, if you will,
let's walk away.

thought it was different but it also
had the same so so
promised myself i'd never go through it again
now that every love song bears the same
familiar strain of...
walk away before i do something stupid
walk away before these threats turn into
one of us could do it

walk away before i say
it's getting too much
walk away walk away
before one of us cracks up.

oh walk away
walk away
don't walk away
(repeat to fade)
oooh don't walk away
