Walk Away by Franz Ferdinand

I (1)______________ my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm (2)____________ now I (3)________ that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away
Mascara (4)____________ a blackened tear
And I am cold
Yes, I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away

Why don't you walk away?

Why don't you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Why don't you (5)________ away?
No quake will (6)__________ the ground
Why don't you walk away?
The sun won't swallow the sky
Why don't you (7)________ away?
Statues will not cry

Why don't you (8)________ away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I (9)________ be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye
I'm not cold
I am old
At least
As old as you are

As you walk away?

As you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you (10)________ away
The Hollywood winds a-howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is STATIC

As you walk away

The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin Smiles
Hitler laughs
Churchill claps
Mao Tse Tung
on the back
