Ready For The Storm

He Sings

“Walk Away” is about a broken relationship. It’s the point in time when you know, you can’t keep waiting on something that’s not going to come to be, no matter how much you wanted it to. It’s the moment of acceptance of what is - and being able to walk away. I felt like it had a kind of Springsteen vibe to it and the band captured it the way I initially wrote it, right from the get-go.

Lizanne Knott: lead vocals
Ross Bellenoit: lead guitar, electric rhythm guitar, acoustic guitar
Erik Johnson: drums
Chico Huff: acoustic bass
Ciara Grace: background vocals

I’m just gonna walk away
I’m just gonna let it go
Everything's so different now
I’m so tired of being alone
Feels like I’ve been waiting here
Baby, for a hundred days
Don’t know wanna wait here anymore
I’m just gonna walk away

I used to watch the cars roll by
I used to think that you’d be there
Now I don’t watch the cars anymore
I just sit and stare
Staring at the same four walls
Every night and everyday 
Don’t know what I was waiting for 
I’m just gonna walk away

I toss all night, can’t get no peace
I drink too much, and I can’t sleep
Don’t even know what I’m supposed to do
Spend my whole life, waiting for you

I’m just gonna walk away
I’m just gonna let it go
Everything’s so different now
I’m so tired of being alone
Staring at the same four walls
Every night and every day
Don’t want to do it anymore
I’m just gonna walk away
