Reasons to Leave - Better Half

4 years slipped right through my fingers

'Cause in my memory

You faded fast

We faded too fast

And I don’t care

I don’t care

You could be anywhere without me

And nothing’s been the same without you

We were 3 years ago

And I still see you around somedays

You’re not quite how I remember

It must be all the sleepless nights and alcohol

«You looked tired, you look worn out»

«I've been so unwell for so long now

And I honestly don’t know when things will get better»

Do things ever get better?

She looked at me and said:

«Baby please, I feel like you’re leaving me»

With sweaty palms I smiled

And looked her straight in the eyes

«Darling, it’ll be okay, everyone leaves eventually»

Eventually

And I don’t care

I don’t care

You could be anywhere without me

And nothing’s been the same without you

9 months on and I still feel exactly how I did that night in your bedroom

Sitting by the window

Sharing a cigarette

And thinking about leaving
