Walk Away

[ Lyrics ]

Left in heels, left the guilt.

Marble floors, one last glance at the view,
doors swing shut, no last words, no adieu.
Keys still on the counter where I never belonged,
like the poems, the photos — all proof I was wrong.
Took the shoes, not the rest, let the choker stay,
walked right past the mirror like I had a plan anyway.
Elevator music hums through a life I erased,
I press 'lobby' like a sentence I finally faced.

No more midnight lies in five-star beds,
no more playing muse with my soul on display.
You called me your art, but I’m the frame now —
clear, unclaimed, walking away from the name.

Walk away ,
one step, then another, no looking back.
Walk away ,
he bought the step, but not the path.
Got my voice back, got my rhythm,
finally playing for myself, not his whims.

Heels click loud — a new soundtrack,
I’m the only one I answer to, fact.

Taxi to JFK, third in line,
no private jet, no code, no sign.
Used my own card, booked a middle seat,
no champagne toast, just my heartbeat.
Window view of the city I left behind,
this time I’m leaving nothing I can’t find.
No passwords saved, no drafts in my phone,
just a single note: 'I’m finally home.'

You painted me velvet, wrapped me in furs,
but I was always the spark before the burn.
Now the flame’s mine — not a gift, not a loan —
I walk free, fully dressed in my own.

Walk away ,
one step, then another, no looking back.
Walk away ,
he bought the step, but not the path.
Got my name back, got my story,
no more living inside his glory.

Heels on tile — not for show,
this walk’s mine from toe to soul.

No rings, no rules, no red wine lies,
just the weight of my truth and clear blue skies.
I was the thrill, the secret, the ghost —
now I’m the one who loved herself most.

Walk away ,
stronger than the love that once held me.
Walk away ,
chosen, not taken, no more pleading.
Got my art back, got my silence,
no more trading peace for violence.

Heels hit ground, not for drama —
just the sound of a woman who knows her armor.

Left the guilt.

I’m gone.
