If you walk away, I'll walk away
First tell me which road you will take
I don't wanna risk our paths crossing someday
So, you walk that way, I'll walk this way

And the future hangs over our heads
And it moves with each current event
Until it falls all around like a cold, steady rain
Just stay in when it's lookin' this way

And the moon's layin' low in the sky
Forcin' everything metal to shine
And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case
They argue, "Walk this way, no, walk this way..."

And Laura's asleep in my bed
As I'm leavin', she wakes up and says,
"I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave
Baby, don't go away, please, come here."

And there's kids playin' guns in the street
And one's pointin' his tree branch at me
And so I put my hands up, I say, "Enough is enough,
If you walk away, I'll walk away."
And he shot me dead

I found a liquid cure
For my landlocked blues
It will pass away like a slow parade
It's leavin', but I can't tell how soon

And the world's got me dizzy again
You'd think after twenty-two years, I'd be used to the spin
And it only feels worse when I stay in one place
So I'm always pacin' around or walkin' away

I keep drinkin' the ink from my pen
And I'm balancin' history books up on my head
But it all boils down to one quotable phrase
"If you love somethin', give it away."

A good woman will pick you apart
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart
But you may be offended, and you may be afraid
But don't walk away, don't walk away

We made love on the livin' room floor
With the noise in the background from a televised war
And in the deafening pleasure, I thought I heard someone say
"If we walk away, they'll walk away."

But greed is a bottomless pit
And our freedom's a joke, we're just takin' a p___
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display
If you're still free, start running away... cause we're coming for ya!

I've grown tired of holdin' this pose
I feel more like a stranger each time I go home
So, I'm makin' a deal with the devils of fame
Sayin' let me walk away, please

You'll be free, child, once you have died
From the shackles of language and measurable time
And then we can trade places, play musical graves
Til then, walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away...

So, I'm up at dawn, puttin' on my shoes
I just wanna make a clean escape
I'm leavin', but I don't know where to
I know I'm leavin', but I don't know where to
