Left Behind

Alright, let's go I'm clinging onto you so tight I know it hurts just a little You say we will be alright But I have my doubts It's better to be holding you While you pass through Than not holding you at all An elephant is in the room Don't look and don't try to feed it You always want me on your terms You can't have your cake and eat it I don't want you to go without me But when you do, won't you Put yourself in my shoes 'Cause I know this feeling I'm so tired of being Left behind (left behind) Left behind (every time) Awake, in bed, in my own head One day rolls into another You look like you've been having fun At least that's what I told my mother Maybe it's better to not have someone at all And no one else can let you down When they forget to call And I keep having this weird dream Where you're going off to war And I'm just left there in the kitchen Staring at the door I think I'm done with this 'Cause if you've got no one, at least you've got no one to miss Is it better to be holding you While you pass through Or not holding you at all? Oh, I don't want you to go without me But when you do, won't you Put yourself in my shoes? Because I know this feeling I'm so tired of dreaming That you're not leaving Oh, I'm so tired of being Left behind (left behind) Left behind (every time) Left behind
