Lyrics

Leave Me Here

There?s confidence and broken
And they?re in disguise
As one another and
I?m not sure which one is coming out tonight
The best advice I?ve gotten
Is just a few days away
You can never be missed
If you were never wanted around in the first place

?Do this,? she said
?And it will all become so clear
If you close one eye and put your thumb up
You can make the moon disappear
Do you get it now?
It?s everything I fear
That it would be that easy for you to leave me here?

There?s walls to be shattered
To build some new regret
In regret there are answers
And reasons for the hell in the days ahead
So put on your overcoat
And get in the car
I?m not sure where I?m going
Maybe heaven, maybe the corner bar

I remember that November night
It was 4am somewhere on 85
I was listening to nothin? but quiet
?cept my Elvis Costello
There were angels in their red shoes
Finally I was on my way home to you
And for a moment, there was perfect

Now the days are like quicksand
And the nights never end
I just wanted to tell you
You were my best friend

?Do this,? she said
?And it will all become so clear
If you close one eye and put your thumb up
You can make the moon disappear
Do you get it now?
It was everything I feared
That I could never save you
Now you left me here
All alone?
