Walk Away by Kendall Swan Lyrics
We’re two kids sitting on a doorstep
You’re smoking out your lungs while I’m breathing in the tree sap
I talk sweet but the recipe don’t back up
You talk big but your plans they don’t stack up
Snuff, flick, it’s fine
I put out most of what I’m thinking
You’re standing there smiling, withholding, and blinking
You blow your smoke and I tell you I believe you
I check my phone, say it was nice to see you
My method’s refined
When I walk away
These thoughts they stay
And on rainy days
I just wash away back like
Remember when we jumped over the fence
To the highway in the woods, toking till it made sense
Now you’re pressed in like graffiti in the concrete
The roads of my passed all tattooed on me
And crossing through my spine
Now I’m looking back on the things I never told you
When life was getting heavy and I didn’t want to hold you
With all these kids that I drop at the station
You think I’d get hit with the realization
This happens all the time
When I walk away
My mind replays
Some wild bouquet
That time blows away just like
I walk away
When I wanna stay
Cause it hurts to say
Don’t walk away
But now I’m in place
When my heart’s at stake
You could crash in shame
I wouldn’t walk away, no
You’re smoking out your lungs while I’m breathing in the tree sap
I talk sweet but the recipe don’t back up
You talk big but your plans they don’t stack up
Snuff, flick, it’s fine
I put out most of what I’m thinking
You’re standing there smiling, withholding, and blinking
You blow your smoke and I tell you I believe you
I check my phone, say it was nice to see you
My method’s refined
When I walk away
These thoughts they stay
And on rainy days
I just wash away back like
Remember when we jumped over the fence
To the highway in the woods, toking till it made sense
Now you’re pressed in like graffiti in the concrete
The roads of my passed all tattooed on me
And crossing through my spine
Now I’m looking back on the things I never told you
When life was getting heavy and I didn’t want to hold you
With all these kids that I drop at the station
You think I’d get hit with the realization
This happens all the time
When I walk away
My mind replays
Some wild bouquet
That time blows away just like
I walk away
When I wanna stay
Cause it hurts to say
Don’t walk away
But now I’m in place
When my heart’s at stake
You could crash in shame
I wouldn’t walk away, no
