Walking Away

I left my shoes back at your place and I headed out to the roadside And though the soles of my feet burned there's no way that I would backslide Mmm the heat of my choice left me raw and undignified But this time I'm choosing that I'll be the one beautified So go on take what else you want from me But know that I'll be gone with the rising tide So so long, farewell, to spinning round your carousel Adios, goodbye, to life under your cloudy sky So long, farewell, I'm choosing freedom for this infidel Adios, goodbye, it's time And I'm walking away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away My velocity quickens as I build the distance 'tween you and I Although guiltiness raises it's head, I know I've got the perfect alibi And so acquitted from my mental chains, the world no more in black and white Wisdom re-emerges now I'm acting as my own Rabbi You've taken what you got from me Now I'm truly gone with the rising tide So so long, farewell, to spinning round your carousel Adios, goodbye, to life under your cloudy sky So long, farewell, I'm choosing freedom for this infidel Adios, goodbye, it's time And I'm walking away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away I'm walking, I'm walking watch me walk away
