Walking Away

The sun goes down as the city lights
Pave their way through the darkest night
Raindrops fall as an old man cries
Never thought to ever think twice
Of all he had
Of all he lost
A selfish life
And guess comes with the cost
Hey, remember me
I remember you walking away
Hey, remember me
I remember you walking away
The same old streets just a different name
Same old house just the family’s changed
Pickett fence
The window stains
Freedom spells by a man in chains
Silence is all we have to give
And the memories of a life I wish we’d lived
From all that you made
That you lost
Or threw away
Traded in for a brand new life
But I can’t
Can’t let go
Can’t turn around
Hold my head high and walk away
