Walk Away

I was (Em)naive;

your love was like (C7)candy.

Artificially (Em)sweet, I was deceived by the (C7)wrapping.

Got caught in your (Em)web,

and I learned how to (C7)bleed.

I was prey in your (Em)bed,

and devoured (C7)completely.

Oh, and it (Em)hurts my soul,

'cause I (G)can't let go.

All these (Am)walls are caving in;

I can't (C)stop my sufferring.

(Em)I hate to show that (G)I've lost control,

'cause I, (Am)I keep going right back to the (C)one thing that I need...

to (Em)walk away from,

yeah.

(C7)(I (Em)need to get away from ya,

need to walk away from ya,

(C7)get away, walk away, walk away.)

Now, I should have (Em)known that I was used for (C7)amusement.

Couldn't see through the (Em)smoke;

it was all an (C7)illusion.

Now I've been (Em)licking my wounds,

but the venom seeps (C7)deeper.

We both can (Em)seduce,

but darling, you hold me (C7)pris'ner.

Oh, I'm (Em)about to break;

I can't (G)stop this ache.

I'm (Am)addicted to your allure, and I'm (C)fiendin' for a cure.

(Em)Ev'ry step I take (G)leads to one mistake.

(Am)I keep going right back to the (C)one thing that I need,

oh. (Em)I can't mend this torn (G)state I'm in,

getting (Am)nothing in return.

What did (C)I do to deserve

(Em)the pain of this slow burn?

(G)And ev'rywhere I turn (Am)I keep going right back to the (C)one thing that I need...

to (Em)walk away from,

yeah. (I (C7)need to get away from ya,

need to walk away from ya.)

(B7)Ev'ry time I try to grasp for air,

I am smothered in despair;
