I Gotta Leave

 

Forget me here for now.

You know nothing of my pain,

If I let you take me down,

We'll live our lives in vain.

The only chance I had is gone,

I'm drifting on the rain.

The more I give myself to you,

The more I feel insane.

Countless times I've tried to run.

Can't get out that door.

But with the countless times you broke my heart

I just can't take any more.

I fill this heart with courage,

And I take my steps in stride.

I make a point to leave this place,

No matter what I feel inside.
