About Walk Away
Mali releases an old favourite, Walk Away, which only existed in the form of a YouTube live session for over 6 years. The song, even before its formal release, was a hit. It’s a perpetual request at all Mali’s live performances and has been covered multiple times by other artists on YouTube and at college fests.
Around a decade ago, Mali’s best friend suffered a bad breakup and went through a difficult time processing it. It was around this time that Mali herself had split from her band and was embarking on a solo career. She channelled both experiences into writing Walk Away, a song about picking up the pieces and finding strength in going it alone.
The single explores a more neo-folk pop sound and has been reimagined to be darker and more ambient than the live version which existed before.

Walk Away
And you said that it's over.
But you keep saying it's over, over and over again.
But this time you meant it
And I really felt it.
I knew that this was bound to end.
So go ahead, walk out the door.
I don't really care cuz I've been there before.
You wasted my time and I wasted yours,
So just leave me now.
Walk away
I don't need you.
Walk away
I know that you don't need me too
We weren't meant to be
So just stay away from me.
Walk away, walk away.
I used to be so blind
But I never did know it
And even if you really cared just a little
Why didn't you show it?
Now you're in my past
It all ended so fast
I'm so glad we decided to throw it all away.
So go ahead, walk out the door.
I don't really care cuz I've been there before.
You wasted my time and I wasted yours,
So just leave me now.
Walk away
I don't need you.
Walk away
I know that you don't need me too
We weren't meant to be
So just stay away from me
Walk away, walk away.
