Walk Away

from Wind​/​Water by Copper Dalton

/

lyrics

In a parking lot, at 3 am ,sat two friends
And this girl Ilene
"Here, swallow this down
Give it time to kick in"
They turned the radio loud
To hide the crying and screaming

Now she tries to walk away from it
Tries to walk away from it
Tries to walk away from it all
She's just swimming in an ocean
Where the currents keep on gathering
When the tide is so strong you can't get far
No, you can't walk away at all

On a Thursday night, in a suburban town
It was time for happy hour
Tom was throwing them down
When he stumbled out the door
He got behind the wheel
He put the pedal to the floor
Killed a mother of three

Now he tries to walk away from it
Tries to walk away from it
Tries to walk away from it all
He's just swimming in an ocean
Where the currents keep on gathering
When the tide is so strong you can't get far
No, you can't walk away at all

Is there a place that we can learn to forget
Let go of the memories we hold
Is there a way that we can learn to forgive
Forgive all the pain that we've caused
Can we not walk away at all

In a town near a bridge that's where I live
And near that bridge
There's a cliff that I've found
And I stand at its edge, casting my regrets in
But when I wake up from the dream
They're just pebbles, that's all

Now I try to walk away from it
Try to walk away from it
Try to walk away from it all
We're just swimming in an ocean
Where the currents keep on gathering
When the tide is so strong you can't get far
No, you can't walk away at all
