Lyrics Bayside – Walk It Off
Text:
I spent my younger years in shame
Just a little boy
Taught that the world was all a sport
Hey kid, you’ll see!
Then all that you see here is yours
I guess they made a man of me
Don’t write it off, don’t forget about
What led you here like it didn’t count
I learnt to walk by falling first
I’m still the kid covered in dirt
We are as we are taught
Shake it off and shut your mouth
Suck it up, make father proud
Go walk it off, go walk it off
You’re not a man, go walk it off
Go walk it off
We are as we are taught
The war was hard but I was brave
Answering the call
Please heal my wounds and keep me safe
At night I’d sort my feelings out
Some things you just don’t talk about
At ten that’s an awful place to be
Don’t write if off, don’t forget about
We’ll let you hear like it didn’t count
I learnt to walk by falling first
I’m still the kid covered in dirt
We are as we are taught
Shake it off and shut your mouth
Go walk it off, go walk it off
You’re not a man, go walk it off
Go walk it off
We are as we are taught
Now I know it wasn’t me
Now I know it wasn’t me
And I think I’m finally good enough
For any normal purposes
Is that all I’ll ever be
Now I know it wasn’t me
Now I know it wasn’t me
And I think I’m finally good enough
For any normal purposes
Is that all I’ll ever be
We are as we are taught
Shake it off and shut your mouth
Suck it up, make father proud
Go walk it off, go walk it off
You’re not a man, go walk it off
Go walk it off
We are as we are taught
We are as we are taught
We are as we are taught
