WALKING AWAY INSIDE Music and Lyrics by JB Minton

WALKING AWAY INSIDE

Scatter my ashes in the flowing wind,
I will take root and flower again.
This is a path in life I despise,
I’m tired of my reflection in the world’s constructed lies.
I’m walking away ‘cause I just can’t stay as the other guy.
Leaving today, I’m walking away inside.
I once had a purpose, once had control,
of a weapon on my own grassy knoll.
I painted a face for you that I’ve come to despise.
But I’m done with the gun; 
I’m walking away inside.
I’m walking away ‘cause I just can’t stay as the other guy.
I’m kneeling to pray before walking away inside.
I am a death trap, caught in the cracks, a generation gap
and you are same as I, but you’d rather eat lies.
We are space-ship, bad trip, floating to the flip side.
I’m tired of my reflection in your passive eyes.
I’m walking away ‘cause I just can’t stay as the other guy.
I give over to the day, walking away inside.
