Lyrics

The Leaving Song

Walked away, heard them say
"Poison hearts will never change"
Walk away again
Turned away in disgrace
Felt the chill upon my face
Cooling from within

Hard to notice gleaming from the sky
When you're staring at the cracks
Hard to notice what is passing by
With eyes lowered

You walked away, heard them say
"Poison hearts will never change"
Walk away again

All the cracks they'll lead right to me and
All the cracks will crawl right through me
All the cracks they'll lead right to me and
All the cracks will crawl right through me
And I fell apart

As I walked away, heard them say
"Poison hearts will never change"
Walk away again
Turned away in disgrace
Felt the chill upon my face
Cooling from within
