Cold War Kids - I Can't Walk Away Lyrics

Cold War Kids Lyrics

"I Can't Walk Away"

Even how good you treat me
Even still I don't belong
I never had it easy
Maybe that's what made me strong

But you grew up so different
With treasure in the ground
You thought you could ignore me
But I keep on hanging 'round

I can't walk away
No, I can't walk away
I can't walk away
No, I can't walk away
I can't walk away
No, I can't walk away
I can't walk away
From who I used to be

Go ahead and test me
See if I can be alone
Nothing can impress me
I've squeezed blood from stone

The worst thing that can happen
Stand up for what I believe
Then everyone that I love
Turns away from me

I can't walk away
No I can't walk away
I can't walk away
No I can't walk away
I can't walk away
No I can't walk away
I can't walk away
From who I used to be

We got so far from where we started
We almost hit the bottom
But all I ever really wanted was you

What's this feeling
Of belonging
This is nothing like before

Like a fever
You keep calling
How much farther can we go?

I can't walk away
No, I can't walk away
I can't walk away
From who I am today
I can't walk away
No, I can't walk away
I can't walk away
From who I used to be

We got so far from where we started
We almost hit the bottom
But all I ever really wanted was you

We got so far from where we started
We almost hit the bottom
But all I ever really wanted was you

Can't walk away
Can't walk away
