Walk Away
Program The Dead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your anger tore us apart
You never had a father
You never had a heart
I don't ever hate you
I just feel sorry
These last months are finally over
We've never been further apart
It wasn't easy for me
But sometimes you have to walk away
All of the cards you've been holding
You're calling them on yourself
You're happy with your new love
It's a flower you've never smelled
I am so damn over
Cleaning up your garbage
I am finally sober
Sober enough to move on
The song Walk Away by Program The Dead talks about a relationship that started with anger but ended with sorrow. The first verse suggests that both the singer and the person they are addressing were fueled by anger and it was the one thing that brought them together. However, over time, the person's anger became too much to handle, and it is implied that they themselves might be hurt and broken due to a tough upbringing, as indicated in the line "you never had a father, you never had a heart." The singer doesn't hate the person they're addressing, but they feel sorry for them. The last line in the verse, "We've never been further apart," signifies that their relationship has reached a point of no return and they are moving on from each other.
In the chorus, the singer accepts that it wasn't easy for them to walk away, but it was necessary for their own well-being. The second verse describes the person moving on with a new love interest, and the singer feeling relieved that they can finally move on from the toxicity and negativity that they had been putting up with. The line "happy with your new love, it's a flower you've never smelled" suggests that the person is experiencing something new and exciting with their new partner, which they had never experienced before.
The overall message of the song is that it's difficult to walk away from someone you care for, but sometimes it's necessary for your own well-being. It's important to prioritize your own needs, and let go of people who don't bring positive energy to your life.
