Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away?
As you walk away, the Kremlin's falling
And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
And as you walk away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh
Why don't you walk away?
Why don't you walk away? Hey
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Won't you walk away, the sun won't swallow the sky
Don't you walk away, no quake will split the ground
Why don't you walk away?
Mascara bleeds into my eye, oh and I'm not cold
I am old at least as old as you are
Stalin smiles and Hitler laughs
Why don't you walk away? No buildings will fall down
As you walk away, the Hollywood winds will howl
Oh as you walk away, my headstone crumbles down
Won't you walk away? Statues will not cry, don't you walk away
Oh as you walk away
I must be strong, stay an unbeliever
As you walk away, radio four is static
As you walk away
Oh as you walk away
And I am cold, yes, I'm cold but not as cold as you are
Oh as you walk away hey
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Oh as you walk away
I cannot turn to see those eyes as apologies may rise
I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, hey, hey
The stab of stiletto on a silent night
