Just Walk Away
Waking up the next morning
The cross burns on my chest
Reaching, stabbing to my heart.
A one night stand
A single hazy passion
Now only a life without you
And I know when you find out
Your heart will break
And I'll break too
Maybe though,
You won't find out
Maybe...
But the skeleton hangs
Stark white in my closet
Waiting for the world to see
The cross burns deeper
As my cheeks burn, embarrassed
That I thought to lie to you
Then I see you
The chain tightens
Choking me
I can't stop myself
I tell you everything
Thinking maybe you'll forgive me
But no..
You just walk away
