Introduction :
Leaving something or someone behind is very difficult but when you know that this is not what you really want you have to do it.
These lyrics are about that feeling when life couldn’t look better from an outsider’s perspective but you know that it can get better.
“Life couldn’t look…”
(Verse-1)
Barefoot on floorboards,
Cold air travels down my spine.
I turn and glance once more
At what I’m gonna leave behind.
(Chorus)
Smiling pictures on the walls,
Full shopping bags from the mall,
Comfy duvets on a warm body,
Empty cups once full of hot tea.
An organized mess on the dresser,
Life just couldn’t look better.
It couldn’t look better.
(Verse-2)
He looks like an angel
From where I’m standing.
But I still pack up, then run
Trying to forget what I’m leavin’.
I’m leaving behind-
(Chorus)
Smiling pictures on the walls,
Full shopping bags from the mall,
Comfy duvets on a warm body,
Empty cups once full of hot tea.
An organized mess on the dresser,
And life just couldn’t look better.
It couldn’t look better.
(Bridge)
I left ‘cause
My brain was
Fully satisfied.
But my heart,
It was crying,
It was suffocating.
I want someone who gets me
I want someone who knows me
Who loves me for me
Not who I pretend to be.
He gave me everything but love,
He doesn’t make feel the butterfly rush,
All is nothing but a well told bluff.
So I left behind-
(Chorus)
Smiling pictures on the walls,
Full shopping bags from the mall,
Comfy duvets on a warm body,
Empty cups once full of hot tea.
An organized mess on the dresser,
And life just couldn’t look worse,
But life could be better,
Life could be way better.
