don't you leave me here,

don't you rob me blind.

with the blood in my lungs,

and the sun in my eyes.

cause i won't wait here

no, not for you

i can't wait forever

it's something i can't do

so you can tell me how long

i'll be standing here

with salt in my veins

and my head full of fear

cause somehow i get the feeling

it'll be years and years and years and years and years and years and years

i've seen your prints in the sand

in a hurricane

i've watched your branches snap

and i've felt your pain

cause maybe i'll just wait here

maybe i'll wait for you

i'm thinking i could stay here

and live inside of you
