Can't Walk Away


I'll stand my ground for right now But I just know that I can't win. I don't know the rules to this game but I hear the wind calling out my name and I just can't resist. Cause I know it's worth a try, can't let myself fall without a fight. But I can only see behind my back, Never willing to let go of the past. The road in front of me threatens change, But i can't stop the world from spinning. The drizzle that I'm used to turned into pouring rain, Nothing's gonna ever be the same. The blankets that kept me warm were torn From under my hands I'm facing the storm instead. But I know it's worth a try, Won't let myself fall without a fight. But I can only see behind my back, Never willing to let go of the past. The road in front of me threatens change, But i can't stop the world from spinning. I can't walk away.

I love to write poetry, and usually make them into songs. Playing guitar, singing, and writing are my three passions. I have no idea how I would live without them.
