Walk Away

Alone under the street light
You whisper "sink or swim"
"Live or let die"

My imperfections were crafted from the flames
Of the abuse... I can fight to see
Another day... I can let you all
Down and sleep soundly at night...

I have nothing to prove
&
I'm closer to that edge
The edge you pushed me to.

I love the way my pain feels
I hate that you have the wanting

To pull me down among all
Of your demons and those demons
You helped create it.

The world is already a ****** up place
I don't need you to remind me that
I was a failure in your eyes

Just walk away it's all you should have done.
I'll be stronger than you
I'll love harder than you
I'll be better than you

Just walk away
It's the best thing you could have ever done...
My fall won't be for you...
