Description:
If you walk away, Ill walk awayFirst tell me which road you will takeI dont want to risk our paths crossing some daySo you walk that way, Ill walk this wayAnd the future hangs over our headsAnd it moves with each current eventUntil it falls all around like a cold steady rainJust stay in when its looking this wayAnd the moons laying low in the skyForcing everything metal to shineAnd the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store caseThey argue walk this way, no, walk this wayAnd Lauras asleep in my bedAs Im leaving she wakes up and saysI dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a waveBaby dont go away, come hereAnd theres kids playing guns in the streetAnd ones pointing his tree branch at meSo I put my hands up I say enough is enough,If you walk away, Ill walk awayAnd he shot me deadI found a liquid cureFrom my landlocked bluesItll pass away like a slow paradeIts leaving but I dont know how soon And the worlds got me dizzy againYou think after 22 years Id be used to the spinAnd it only feels worse when I stay in one placeSo Im always pacing around or walking awayI keep drinking the ink from my penAnd Im balancing history books up on my headBut it all boils down to one quotable phraseIf you love something, give it awayA good woman will pick you apartA box full of suggestions for your possible heartBut you may be offended and you may be afraidBut dont walk away, dont walk awayWe made love on the living room floorWith the noise in the background of a televised warAnd in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone sayIf we walk away, theyll walk awayBut greed is a bottomless pitAnd our freedoms a joke Were just taking a pissAnd the whole world must watch the sad comic displayIf youre still free start running awayCause were coming for you!Ive grown tired of holding this poseI feel more like a stranger each time I come homeSo Im making a deal with the devils of fameSaying let me walk away, pleaseYoull be free child once you have diedFrom the shackles of language and measurable timeAnd then we can trade places, play musical gravesTill then walk away, walk awaySo Im up at dawnPutting on my shoesI just want to make a clean escapeIm leaving but I dont know where toI know Im leaving but I dont know where toI DO NOT OWN ANYTHING

Nov 13, 2011 - @MyStevie1990 Come on man. Every angsty 7th grader listens to Conor Oberst and thinks they are deep and poetic for doing so. The fact that you appreciate his music doesn't make you very impressive.

Nov 18, 2011 - @mcmexican123 I never said it made me impressive man.. And in no way do i think im 'deep and poetic' (as you put it) for listening to his songs, Their not very well knowin over here in Ireland, Theres also a difference between listening to it and understanding it, He's a fuckin poet and i <3 him

Dec 1, 2011 - I think people often confuse the brutal honesty of Connor Oberst with angst, i saw him play this at the royal albert hall and had goosebumps, it was amazing <3

Dec 2, 2011 - "We made love on the living room floorWith the noise in the background of a televised warAnd in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone sayIf we walk away, theyll walk away"That represents a lot about our generation I think.

Feb 2, 2012 - I love this band, so don't get e wrong when I ask this: what is the sexual orientation of the frontman? (not that I even really care that much, its just out of curiousity and I mean no disrespect)

Feb 2, 2012 - @metallicabdb *me

Feb 4, 2012 - @metallicabdb I dunno, but I'm straight and his voice makes me hard and sexually confused. Amazing voice and beautiful lyrics (If you love something, give it away)...I love Bright Eyes.
CRileymcr Says:
Feb 7, 2012 - @metallicabdb straight i THINK, never thought about it but im sure he is, most his songs are about love and someone breaking his heart lol, and its usually involving womens names, and the feel of the song is its towards women
CRileymcr Says:
Feb 7, 2012 - @professormacdeezy i love that bit too, cant really think what is meant by it will pass away like a slow parade, that's leavin', tho, care to explain?
mussman717word Says:
Feb 8, 2012 - @metallicabdb I'm pretty sure he's straight. I've never heard otherwise, other than pointless insults.
