Don't Walk Away
Until June Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm an island sinking, slow and frail inside
I'm trying to make this work a thousand times
So don't walk away from me, yeah, from me, no
And if I fall from this, will I get back up again?
Will you carry me when I'm broken up inside?
You wanted everything, well, I'm sorry now
And so, you try to walk away, to walk away from me
And if you leave me here and look away
Don't walk away from me, oh, from me, yeah, from me, no
Oh, from me, yeah, from me, no
Oh, from me, yeah, from me, no
In "Don't Walk Away" by Until June, the lyrics depict a sense of desperation and vulnerability. The singer is calling out to someone not to leave them, as they feel like they are in a "shattered state" and their heart keeps breaking. They paint a picture of themselves as an "island sinking, slow and frail inside," highlighting their unease and insecurity.
Throughout the song, the singer begs the other person not to leave them, stating that they have tried to make things work many times before, implying that this is not the first time they have been in this situation. They also ask if the other person will continue to be there for them when they falter, asking "If I fall from this, will I get back up again? / Will you carry me when I'm broken up inside?"
Towards the end, the singer becomes more forceful, warning the other person not to walk away and begging them "from me, yeah, from me, no." The repetition of "from me" emphasizes their need for this person not to abandon them.
Overall, the lyrics in "Don't Walk Away" are emotionally charged and paint a picture of a person struggling with their own sense of self-worth and attachment to another individual.

I'm just ASSUMING they're like Flyleaf. Lacey Mosley said that they're a band, but not a Christian band, but they are of Christian faith. And the reason why they're not a Christian band is because they want their music to be for everyone.
