Why I Walked Away

(Verse 1) Sittin' here with fire in my eyes, Gotta tell you straight, no more lies, Too many fights, like thunder in the night, Your words cut deep, left scars in sight. (Chorus) You wanna know why I walked away, Too many arguments, each and every day, Your looks faded, but your attitude stayed, And when I found out, my heart betrayed. (Verse 2) Your beauty once shined, like a southern star, But inside, you were cold, couldn't get far, You played your games, thought I wouldn't see, But I saw through it all, I'm finally free. (Chorus) You wanna know why I walked away, Too many arguments, each and every day, Your looks faded, but your attitude stayed, And when I found out, my heart betrayed. (Bridge) I tried to hold on, but the rope was frayed, Your cheating ways, like a price I paid, I'll find my peace in this lonely town, No more tears to cry, no more love to drown. (Verse 3) Now I'm standin' tall, beneath this southern sky, No more hurtin', no more goodbye, I'll find a love, true and real, Not a game of lies, not a broken seal. (Pre-Chorus) I tried to mend what's broken inside, But the wounds were deep, and the scars won't hide, Now I'm walking away, with a heart that's torn, No more second chances, no love to mourn. (Chorus) You wanna know why I walked away, Too many arguments, each and every day, Your looks faded, but your attitude stayed, And when I found out, my heart betrayed. (Verse 4) In the silence of the night, I find my peace, Letting go of pain, letting memories cease, The stars above, they whisper tales of hope, In this journey of healing, I learn to cope. (Chorus) You wanna know why I walked away, Too many arguments, each and every day, Your looks faded, but your attitude stayed, And when I found out, my heart betrayed. (Pre-Outro) Now I ride into the sunset, leaving behind the past, With lessons learned and memories cast, No regrets in my heart, as I find my way, In the light of dawn, a new chapter starts today. (Outro) So I bid farewell to the pain and strife, Embracing a future full of newfound life, The road ahead may be long and wide, But I'll ride with strength, with hope as my guide.
