lyrics

I made a list of the people who left
And swore up and down that they would come back
It was the length of my body twice over
And over, they told me the distance would make me grow stronger

But mother, don’t worry
Tell your people we’re coming back
It’s not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me

Wasting away
I’m never coming back
Haven’t you said
I need a second act

I’m never coming back
I won’t look back
I’m never coming back

If finding yourself is something that matters
Well me ask me again and I’ll tell you just who you are
It won’t cost anything except your loyalty
Why don’t you promise me

You’ll try not to worry
Every time is a compromise
It’s not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me

But,

Mother, don’t worry
Tell your people we’re coming back, coming back
It’s not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me

Wasted away
I’m never coming back
Haven’t you said
I need a second act

I’m never coming back
I won’t look back
I’m never coming back

But mother, don’t worry
Tell your people we’re coming back, coming back
It’s not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me

But,

Mother don’t worry
Try not to worry

I made a list of the people who left
