Left

Worried about the past reoccurring
Worried about the future, not that reassuring
Why does it burn so immensely?
Why does it hurt so lamentably?

Obviously, you don’t truly understand
Apparently, you don’t see where I stand
You don’t care and watch tv
While I suffer tremendously

You’re watching me suffer indecisively
You don’t care about me so undeniably
It’s unbearable to see you give in to your addictions
It’s unbearable that I’m giving in to my inflictions
You were unfaithful, baby, and I know why now
You were ungrateful for me honestly anyhow
You just stare vacantly at a tv screen
What’s been seen has been left unseen
The moment you left, left, left me behind
You left, left, left all of me to unwind
I left, left, left all of you very complete
I got you back on your feet…feet…feet…
You and I left us both in the dust and grime
Now that I realize we have almost run out of time

Worried about the past reoccurring
Worried about the future as I watch you on your phone, hiding on the down low
Why does it cluster me with worrying?
I feel so lost and all alone…while you remain unfaithfully on your own undertoe

Obviously, you don’t truly understand
Apparently, you don’t see where I stand
You don’t care and watch tv
While I suffer tremendously

You’re watching me suffer indecisively
You don’t care about me so undeniably
It’s unbearable to see you give in to your addictions
It’s unbearable that I’m giving in to my inflictions
You were unfaithful, baby, and I know why now
You were ungrateful for me honestly anyhow
You just stare vacantly at a tv screen
What’s been seen has been left unseen
The moment you left, left, left me behind
You left, left, left all of me to unwind
I left, left, left all of you very complete
I got you back on your feet…feet…feet…
You and I left us both in the dust and grime
Now that I realize we have almost run out of time

Worried about the sad past reoccurring
Worried about the future as I view you walk out the door and meet with others
Why does it burn like a fire a-flurrying?
My trust towards you has failed, making the future of us become mere blurs

Obviously, you don’t truly understand
Apparently, you don’t see where I stand
You don’t care and watch tv
While I suffer tremendously

You’re watching me suffer indecisively
You don’t care about me so undeniably
It’s unbearable to see you give in to your addictions
It’s unbearable that I’m giving in to my inflictions
You were unfaithful, baby, and I know why now
You were ungrateful for me honestly anyhow
You just stare vacantly at a tv screen
What’s been seen has been left unseen
The moment you left, left, left me behind
You left, left, left all of me to unwind
I left, left, left all of you very complete
I got you back on your feet…feet…feet…
You and I left us both in the dust and grime
Now that I realize we have almost run out of time

You left…left…left me behind with your actions
You left…left…left with your shameful interactions
You left me for the individuals you messed around with heartlessly
You left…left…left me with a broken heart that’s hard to mend, you see?

Can’t you see I’m broken-hearted as ever?
Don’t you have guilt overflow in you?
It’s on you if we seperate and you do whatever
Don’t you have a loyal heart like I do?
