Left Behind

I've been working on a dream for you

Killing hours at the bar

Trying to focus through the neon lights

I watch you dancing from afar

And you sometimes look my way

But I never catch your eye

'Cos you're so far away, in another place

And I've been left behind

I've been wondering where my soul has gone

'Cos I can't find it anywhere

I hit pause and gave it all to you

Now there's nothing left to share

So I'll put on my brave face

And drain this bottle til it's dry

And I've forgotten who I am

I'll start to understand that I've been left behind

You say 'we're just fine, don't dig up the dirt'

But it's just a bit of fun til it all goes wrong and someone's hurt

And you say 'we're just fine, it's always been this way'

But girl you wouldn't know the score

If it knocked your door and ran away

Would you care if I walked out of here?

Would you even bat an eye?

'Cos this is happening in real time

Falling apart before my eyes

As the rug gets pulled away

You turn away without a smile

The door will slowly close

And everyone will know that I've been left behind

The door will slowly close

And everyone will know that I've been left behind
