“Walk Away” sees the narrator taking a step back, letting his guard down and giving in. He knows that the pain will pass, that “it’s really not worth the fight.” He also touches on the idea of ego; he believes the bigger opinion he has of himself, the harder he will fall.
[Verse 1]
This time
I've gotta put my guard down
Pick myself up off the ground
And take the pain
It'll pass
The swellin' never really lasts
But the scar remains remind me
That I'm still livin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, it's not too late
Oh, it's really not worth the fight
No one's right
Well, it's time to walk away
[Chorus]
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away, ay-ay-ay, ay
Walk away
Well, the bigger that you come
All the harder you're gonna fall
Walk away
Walk away
[Verse 2]
Did you win?
Or maybe did you lose?
Now you're gonna lick your wounds anyway
But it goes back to you
When you fall
You're gonna need a parachute
Or a used pair of shoes to go
And walk away
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, it's not too late
And it's really not worth the fight
No one's right
Well, it's time to walk away
[Chorus]
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away, ay-ay-ay, ay
Walk away
Well, the bigger that you come
All the harder you're gonna fall
Walk away
Walk away
[Bridge]
Walk away
Ay, ay-ay-ay, ay, walk away
Ay, ay-ay-ay, ay, walk away
[Chorus]
Well, the bigger that you come
All the harder you're gonna fall
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
