I Walk Away

You came
Out of this world to me
My life
Parted like the Red Sea
We flowed
Easy between the rocks and stones
Never seemed to stop us
The years
Ended in confusion
Don't ask me I don't know what happened
But I am
A man with a mission
Must be the devil I don't know
It's hard to let go
Of all that we know
As I walk away from you
Hurled from my home
Into the unknown
As I walk away from you
Reveal whatever you desire
To you it may be death defying
Black day
In the coldness of winter
Black words
Slipping off my tongue
I say forget it - it's over
As a dark cloud covered up the sun
It's hard to let go
Of all that we know
As I walk away from you
The sun always sets
With room for regrets
As I walk away from you
Give it to me
Give it to me
Your inspiration
Give to receive
Find all we need
As I walk away
Just a slave to ambition
Tension your permanent condition
So much you've always wanted
Too much given' you a sore head
