Leave things standing

You can leave things standing
yes you can! now listen
it's not always gonna go right
as a matter of fact and opinion
things will simply get fucked up
still keep reading
you can leave things standing
for instance
just because you don't live there
isn't a reason to burn it to the ground
may well be the moment you realize
you are not going back
so now what is the reason
what is this treason
for this new betrayal
is it in the mirror
a targeted bullseye from the barrel
does that look like you
do you want it to look like me
come on now let's deal with the brokenhearted
or grab some matches and gasoline
we can leave things standing
