Walking Away Inside

Scatter my ashes right in the flowing wind;
so I can take root and flower again.
This is a path in life that I despise.
I'm tired of my reflection in the world's constructed lie.

I'm walking away 
cause I just can't stay as the other guy.
I'm leaving today
as I'm walking away inside.

I once had a purpose.
I once had control
of a weapon on down in the grassy knoll.
I painted a face for you that I've come to despise.
But I'm done with the gun, 
cause I'm walking away inside.

I'm walking away 
cause I just can't stay as the other guy.
I'm kneeling to pray 
to keep on walking away inside.

I am a death trap, caught in the cracks,
a generation gap.
And you are the same as I
but you'd rather eat lies.

We are a space ship, bad trip,
floating to the flip side.
I can't stand my reflection
in your passive eyes.

I'm walking away 
cause I just can't stay as the other guy.
I give myself to the day
when I walk away inside.
