Walk Away Lyrics

I have been angry for so long I let you know.
Should have walked away when I was young I let you go.
I turned away but maybe I was wrong.
I've been polishing blame for so long now,
My pride and joy.
A bit of tragedy never hurt.
Somehow this man became a boy.
You took the blame but maybe I was wrong

Walk away now and be gone.
You don't have to want to go on.
I can see it's killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Every angel had dirty hands.
Even Judas planned to just carry on.
Just picking up the pieces of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes.
You can walk away.

You had been silent for so long I let the world know.
I turned a bit of my pain into a song.
Then carried on.
You took my shame but maybe that was wrong.

Walk away now and be gone.
You don't have to want to go on,
Even when they're killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Every angel had dirty hands.
Even Judas planned to just carry on.
Just picking up the pieces of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes.
You can walk away now and be strong.
Well I know you can carry on.
Walk away now and be gone.
You don't have to want to carry all the pain inside you.
Because the blood in me is your blood every time I fall.

Walk away now and be gone,
Even when it's killing you.
You don't always have to be so strong for me.
Walk away now and be gone.
You know even Judas planned to just carry on.
Still picking up the pieces of what lies behind those sorrowful eyes.
You can walk away now and be strong.
You don't have to carry on.
Walk away now and be strong.
You don't have to want to go on.

Walk away now and be strong.
You don't have to want to go on.
Walk away.
Walk away now.
Walk away now.
You don't have to go on.
You don't have to be strong.
Walk away now.
You can walk away.

Cover art for Walk Away lyrics by Darren Hayes

Pretty sure it's about his dad. He wrote some pretty strong and not-so-good stuff about his dad in previous songs: "I turned a bit of my pain into a song". But now he's forgiven his father, but can accept it if his father is hurt for his previous comments "You took my shame but maybe that was wrong" Hopefully I'm making sense. The father theory also fits the line: "Because the blood in me is your blood every time I fall"

Cover art for Walk Away lyrics by Darren Hayes

An unbelievable powerful song. This song captivates such pain in a relationship. He is telling his partner how much he loves her/him but he can't help hurting them. The partner has done everything in the relationship and has held them together for so long but Darren Hayes is telling them to walk away from him, he loves you too much to keep hurting you. He doesn't blame you for just leaving this relationship, the other person has bled too much for the both of them and now you must walk away. Darren Hayes is saying that until he gets over his wounds he can never truly love you like you deserve it
