I like it    I don't like it

Innocence for pride, crush the end within my stride

Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leader

I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away

Mascara bleeds a blackened tear

Oh, and I am cold, yes I'm cold, but not as cold as you are

I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away

I love the sound of you walking away, walking away, hey, hey

Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away?

Why don't you walk away? No buildings will fall down

Why don't you walk away? No quake will split the ground

Why don't you walk away? The sun won't swallow the sky

Why don't you walk away? Statues will not cry

Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away?

Why don't you walk away? Why don't you walk away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes, as apologies may rise

I must be strong and stay an unbeliever

And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away

Mascara bleeds into my eye

Oh, and I'm not cold, I am old, at least as old as you are

I hear the sound of you walking away, you walking away

I hear the sound of you walking away, walking away, hey hey

And as you walk away, oh, as you walk away

And as you walk away, my headstone crumbles down

As you walk away, the Hollywood winds will howl

As you walk away, the Kremlin's falling

Oh, as you walk away, Radio 4 is static

As you walk away, oh, as you walk away

Oh, as you walk away, oh, as you walk away, hey

The stab of stilettos

On a silent night

Stalin smiles and Hitler laughs

Churchill claps Mao Tse-Tung on the back
