Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh, to find a better day
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Sometimes, some people get me wrong
When it's something I've said or done
Sometimes, you feel there is no fun
That's why you turn and run
But now I truly realize
Some people don't want to compromise
Well I saw them with my own eyes
Spreading those lies, yeah
Well I don't want to live a lie
Too many sleepless nights
Not mentioning the fights
I'm sorry to say lady
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh, to find a better day
Well I'm so tired baby
Of things you say
You're driving me away
Whispers in the powder room baby
Don't listen to the games they play
Girl I thought you'd realized
I'm not like them other guys
'Cause I saw them with my own eyes
You should've been more wise babe
Well I don't want to live a lie
Too many sleepless nights
Not mentioning the fights
I'm sorry to say lady
