General & Sherman - Never Leave

Wait, the sun is burning you
Wait, the sun is burning you
You’d never leave
You’d never leave, you’d say
Never leave, you told a child
She said it’s only for the night, gotta run
Love to stay but I don’t know what I could say to your son
A one of kind girl, who really knows how to pick ‘em
Too smart and strong in herself to the play the victim
She grew up fast just like you’re supposed to
Learned to keep her friends close and her enemies closer
Poster of Mac Miller on the wall, number one fan
Wakes up in the morning, damn
Years spent in hating you
Years spent in missing you
You’d never leave
You’d never leave, you’d say
Never leave, you told me
Never leave, you told a child
Never say die
Would’ve been, could’ve been, should’ve been there
She took a man out thinking it would pan out
She demands out for sanity but always something
That’ll leave her wanting more, headed out the door
Pot-committed like never before, bust that paradigm
Captain in a maritime war
You turn the wheel and you learn to feel tough
There’s nothing you could tell anymore
Don’t sell me war, don’t sell me hope that’ll rope me in, though
Another fucking star jumps out the window
How could we let it slide?
Growing up I woulda gave it all to be Robin Williams
Then he fucking died
Could’ve been, should’ve been there
Now “Best Day Ever” is like worst-ever nightmare
Another flight of stares, put the blinders on
Shake the thoughts away, never did wrong
You know that you love him then find out he didn’t
You know there’s no way to go back to beginning
Then the strain just never leaves
Years of hating you
Years of missing you
You told me, you said
Never leave
