Left Behind

"I've turned waiting into a form of art

Tied twisted lines around my broken heart

To keep me hanging on for one more day

I've painted on a crooked smile

Hung the tears to dry awhile

Because i knew that you'd come back to stay

But my arms are empty

And my heart's in pieces

And my soul is twisting

And my throat is aching

Because i've finally woken up to find:

That I've been left behind"

"I'm done with this waiting game

My heart may never be the same

But it's time to live my life and move on

This may have made me stronger now

Even though I'm not quite sure how

I think it may be good that you are gone

So my arms are reaching

And my heart is healing

And my soul is hoping

And my throat is screaming

Because I've finally woken up to find:

I can't be left behind"

"I needed you, I wanted you, I tried to please you but that's no way to live, It's all up to me now, and if I see you again soon, maybe you'll stay."

"Now my arms are stronger

And my heart is beating

And my soul is soaring

And my throat is speaking

Because i've finally woken up to find:

I won't be left behind"
