Leave and Lie
Can you hear me
I'm screaming out
Yet you just walk away
I know you see me
You know I'm here
You said you would always be there
Yet you walk away
As if you never promised
As if you don't know me
As if I'm no longer here
I gave you the choice
You said you would stay
Stay and die I would say
But you leave and lie
I was wrong to believe
You would always be there
You would lie
I would believe
Like the fool I am
The fool you saw me to be
I scream out to you
You only stand and watch
How I burn
How I fall
How I come to pass death head on
The last face I saw
Was your face smiling
As if you were at your happiest
Glad I could make you happy
But now I hope your happy
That you were there for my last breath
I'm screaming out
Yet you just walk away
I know you see me
You know I'm here
You said you would always be there
Yet you walk away
As if you never promised
As if you don't know me
As if I'm no longer here
I gave you the choice
You said you would stay
Stay and die I would say
But you leave and lie
I was wrong to believe
You would always be there
You would lie
I would believe
Like the fool I am
The fool you saw me to be
I scream out to you
You only stand and watch
How I burn
How I fall
How I come to pass death head on
The last face I saw
Was your face smiling
As if you were at your happiest
Glad I could make you happy
But now I hope your happy
That you were there for my last breath
