Christina Aguilera - Walk Away - 2002


What do you do
When you know something's bad for you
And you still can't let go

I was naive
Your love was like candy
Artificially sweet
I was deceived by the wrapping

Got caught in your web
And I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed
And devoured completely

Oh and it hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering

I hate to show that I
Lost control cause I
Keep going right back to the one thing that I need
To walk away from

(I need to get away from
I need to walk away from
Get away, walk away, walk away)

I should've known
That I was used for amusement (for amusement, uh)
Couldn't see through the smoke
It was all an illusion

Now I've been licking my wounds (licking my wounds)
But the venom seeps deeper(Deeper, deeper)
We both can seduce but darlin' you hold me prisoner (prisoner)

Oh I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure and I'm fiendin' for a cure
Every step I take leads to one mistake
I keep going right back to the one thing
That I need a

I can't mend, this torn state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve?
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back to the one thing I need
To walk away from

(I need to get away from
I need to walk away from)

Every time I try to grasp for air
I am smothered in despair it's never over (over, uh, uh)
Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare
I let out a silent pray, let it be
(over, over, uh, ooo)

Inside I'm screaming
Breaking, pleading over (ah, ah)

Now what to do
My heart has been bruised
So sad but it's true
Each beat reminds me of yo

Ooo, it hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering

I hate to show that I
Lost control cause I
Keep going right back to the one thing I need

I'm about to break
Cause I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure and I'm fiendin' for a cure, no
Every step I take leads to one mistake
I keep going right back to the one thing
That I need a

I can't mend, this torn state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve?
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back to the one thing I need
To walk away from

I said
(I need to get away from
I need to walk away from)
(I need to get away from
I need to walk away from)
Only thing I need to do
(I need to get away from
I need to walk away from)
Is walk away from you, walk away, walk away from you
