Walking Out
Srbuk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you have to fight the agony that's aiming back at you?
Who are you? Who you run to?
Depend, defend, hope on
Can you function on your own?
Are you from those who will swallow down
The pain, disgrace, the sadness? Yeah
Can take your soul and break it, no
Wait for, oh, wait for
What I waited for
Wait for, oh, wait for
Oh, no, I'm done
Walking out, uh
Whatever I've built I'm gonna burn down
I'm walking out, uh
You're no more a king 'cause I was your crown
First, you said you would die for me
But in the end, I was the one bleeding all alone
First, you said, you kneeled, you swore
You loved, you lived for me
How could you forget it all?
Are you from those who can take a loving heart
And squeeze it out of love?
Then prepare to slowly get not loved but hated instead
Walking out, uh
Whatever I've built I'm gonna burn down
I'm walking out, uh
You're no more a king 'cause I was your crown
Walking out (Walking out), walking out (Walking out)
No crying now
Walking out (Walking out), walking out (Walking out)
No begging
Walking out, uh
At last, I feel proud, I'm walking out
You knew that my heart wasn't small
But somehow you came and filled it all
(Walking out, uh)
(Whatever I've built I'm gonna burn down) Yeah
(Walking out, uh) Yeah
(You're no more a king 'cause I was your crown)
(Walking out) Walking out, (Walking out) walking out
Crying now
(Walking out) Walking out, (Walking out) walking out
Begging
(Walking out, uh)
(At last, I feel proud), I'm walking out
Srbuk's song "Walking Out" is a powerful anthem about leaving a toxic relationship with someone who once claimed to love you. The song opens with questions about identity and the struggle to fight back the pain that is constantly attacking you. The lyrics suggest that the singer is questioning who they really are and what they are capable of handling on their own. The chorus then declares the decision to leave this relationship, burning down whatever was built and taking back control. Srbuk sings about the emotional pain inflicted by the person she once loved, how they promised to always be there for her but ended up causing her to bleed alone. The lyrics suggest that the person she loved changed, becoming someone who could no longer be trusted with her heart. The song ends with Srbuk feeling proud of herself for finally walking away.
