I swapped my innocence for pride

Crushed the end within my stride
Ami Emi
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
C G Ami F

Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh

And I am cold, yes, I'm cold

No buildings will fall down

No quake will split the ground

Hey
G F Am Em
I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye, oh
And I'm not cold, I am old
At least as old as you are
And as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood winds will howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is static
As you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Oh, as you walk away
Hey

The stab of stiletto
Ami Emi
On a silent night
G
Stalin smiles
F
Hitler laughs
Ami
Churchill claps
Emi
Mao Tse Tung on the back
