You couldn't relate to me then because I wasn't as quick with my jokes
And I'd barely escaped from my childhood bed, there were so many people that
I didn't know then
But I was leaving
I was leaving and that held appeal to you
I was leaving
And when you're leaving, others feel it too
You said, "you don't look the same when you're leaving."
At least that's what I think that you said
There were so many things I was feeling
I was scared and confused and I mostly felt bad
But I was leaving
I was leaving and I found some comfort there
I was leaving
Too stupid or too brave to care
And I don't care where they go
It's all these things I've let go
And I know how it seemed then, but I'm still bleeding
And I don't care who knows
So the day has finally come to settle up
I'm quicker with my words, but it never is enough
The ones I used to know were so conceited
I considered them then, but I never will again, why did I think of you then?
Cause you were leaving
You were leaving and that held appeal to me
You were leaving
And when you're leaving you get thought of constantly
