Leave

It’s a quarter pass nine,

And you’re bound to leave.

You have plenty of time,

But this is not about time, it’s about me.

What has made you so scared,

That you have to leave?

But this can’t even compare

To the embarrassment of last week.



So how about we recharge

And find out who we are

We’re running, we’re hiding

We’re silent, we’re quiet.

This game has no ending

So lets stop depending

Our history is a battleground

For times we should have stayed around

But I know the real question is

Can it get any worse than this?



It’s almost ten now

And you ask if you can leave

It’s not my decision if you want to stick around

But deep down I wish it was up to me

Your eyes signal for the door

I know you want to leave

I’m not sure what hurts more

I put all the blame on me



It only gets darker after this

Lets pretend I don’t exists

Lets pretend you don’t notice my tears

As they fall down my face and into the ocean

Cause this living room is no place to show emotion

Why can’t it be easy like how the movies show love to be?

Why can’t you stay the night and whisper how much you love me?

But instead your hands are cold as your heart and your begging to leave.
