Walking Away

Verse

I did everything I could to save us

I was willing to give up so much

But I know what my heart really wants

You were too stubborn to budge

I don’t think of this as giving up

I’m just moving on

Pre-chorus

I bent till I almost broke

Trying to be what you chose

Chorus

I stayed

’Cause I didn’t want the past three years to go to waste

But at the end of the day

I’m proud of myself for walking away

Sometimes leaving is the brave thing to do

Verse

I ignored the signs I shouldn’t have

Called it love, but it felt like math

Always adding, never getting back

That kind of lonely hits different bad

I tried to make us both okay

But you never met me halfway

Pre-chorus

I stopped blaming myself

For wanting something else

Chorus

I stayed

’Cause I didn’t want the past three years to go to waste

But at the end of the day

I’m proud of myself for walking away

Bridge

I used to think leaving meant I failed

Now I know it means I listened to myself

I’m choosing peace, I’m choosing truth

I’m finally choosing me over you

Chorus

I stayed

’Cause I didn’t want the past three years to go to waste

But at the end of the day

I’m proud of myself for walking away

Outro

walking away… choosing me…
