I don't know why
the reason that I left you behind
I don't know my thought patterns
of this crime
but I'll stay here
just a little while
I don't know why
the reasons behind those lies
I won't tell myself one reason, baby
until I die
but I'll stay here
just a little while
well I led myself
to believe I can
feel your breath on the back of my neck
for just once, at all
won't you believe in something?
like how you coming with me
when you're already gone?
well you want to know the reason
why I left you behind?
it's cause I seen my future plans
dividing you and I
I can not share the low-life scene
that I soon see in my head
how you saying don't say or sing how dare 'cause
I'm alone, you know
this home's no home at all
I don't know why
the reason that I left you behind
I won't tell myself one reason baby
I don't know why
but I'll stay here
just a little while
