Is this masquerade finally over?
Can we put down the roles
That we've played so many times?

Is this really the final curtain
The end of the play?
Or will we just dance this dance
We've danced again and again and again?

Once again I walk away
There's no turning back this time, baby
Once again I walk away
Every step, I leave you behind me

Once again I walk away
Determined this time you'll be sorry
Once again I walk away
If you ask me, you know that I'd stay

If we put out the sun
And stopped it from shining
Girl, we both know
We still couldn't be anymore in the dark

There's no flashlight
There's no insight as hard as we try
We keep running 'round in circles
Time after time, hello, goodbye

Once again I walk away
There's no turning back this time, baby
Once again I walk away
Every step, I leave you behind me

Once again I walk away
Determined this time you'll be sorry
Once again I walk away
If you ask me, you know that I'd stay

I walk away, I walk away
But I know that I'll be back again
I walk away, I walk away
But I know that I'll be back again
Yeah, I'll walk away

Once again I walk away
There's no turning back this time, baby
Once again I walk away
Every step, I leave you behind me

Once again I walk away
Determined this time you'll be sorry
Once again I walk away
If you ask me, you know that I'd stay

I walk away, I walk away
But I know that I'll be back again
I walk away, I walk away
But I know that I'll be back again

I walk away, I walk away
But I know that I'll be back again
I walk away, I walk away
