Just Surrender Better To Leave


So let’s set the scene,
He walks out to a busy street,
In the summer heat,
Hazy from the night before,
Not the type to spend one alone,
Even though he knows,
Come the morning he’ll be gone,
Just moving on,

She awoke in an empty bed,
The sting of regret creeping into every bone,
On the nightstand,
A note that read,
“Girl,
I won’t be back,”
You deserve better than that,
She would cry if she could lie to herself,
‘Cause she’s used to the first time,
Always being her last,

Can you see it dripping down from her lips?
Taste it on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides deep inside?
In her eyes,
This all just what it seems,
Could be just another dream,
Could be that the end doesn’t always just justify the means,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,

So let’s set this straight,
Few weeks later he’s back again,
The city of sin,
And she’s acting out her role,
She arrives a touch at the waist,
To another pretty face,
And she’s taking this one home,
She will lie,
And he will buy her lines,
‘Cause you were never the first,
She drops that shit all the time,

Can you see it dripping down from her lips?
Taste it on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides deep inside?
In her eyes,
This all just what it seems,
Could be just another dream,
Could be that the end doesn’t always just justify the means,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,

She’s so afraid of what she’s become,
She’s begging just to feel something for anyone,
Nothing can save her,
She’s made up her mind,
Is all but dead and gone,
Now she is on her own,
Get out while you still have some heart left,
You can’t save someone with no hope,

Can you see it dripping down from her lips?
Taste it on her fingertips?
Can you see the pain that she hides deep inside?
In her eyes,
This all just what it seems,
Could be just another dream,
Could be that the end doesn’t always just justify the means,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave,
Sometimes it’s better to just leave.
