Genius Annotation

Addiction and self-destructive behavior are prevalent themes throughout House of Sugar. Walk away sets up these themes beautifully, with the narrator promising to walk away from or quit someone or something that they know they never actually will.

The repetition of the lyrics represents the cycle of giving in “just this once” and lying to yourself that you’ll quit it for real some other day, over and over again.
