Leaving You Behind

Leaving You Behind

Music by M-LAB; Lyrics by Drew Brody

the lines have been drawn
and you think they’ll just disappear
for a moment here
do you think we can be unclear?

stand down
from your order to intercept
when you clearly have no intention of climbing aboard

get on or get out
i was fine alone without you
reaching your hands to test the wind
just give in or give up
i have cause enough to doubt you
if it don’t work this time i’m leaving you behind

set afloat on a pile of sticks
we drift like continents – apart, but our edges still fit
love sinks and then suddenly surfaces
gasping for air, is it drowning or being reborn?

get on or get out…

but our orbit is fixed by our gravity
it’s outside our control
broken down into our elements
we attract and repel and attract and break loose and combine

get on or get out…
