It's been almost two years now since I saw you last
Sorry I remember you anyway, 'cause you won't escort me out of your past
So you better just leave me here, 'cause I knew you'd win
Just take your new shiny shoes, you don't have to be my friend
Go ahead and walk away, sever these last ties
I am nothing but a breath, you're nothing but a lie
You got the last word when you left, put me in my place
And you went off to your wild dreams, gone without a trace
While you followed a yellow brick road (to thine own self be true),
And when you choose to go that way, in the end there's only you
Go ahead and walk away, sever these last ties
I am nothing but a breath, you're nothing but a lie
High on the sound of your own name and this fleeting fanfare
A common ground has fallen down, as if it was never there
While I'm still wearing the same old dress, my heart has come alive
And I will wait for your return if you'd ever change your mind
Go ahead and walk away, sever these last ties
I am nothing but a breath, you're nothing but a lie (2x)
