i was afraid to let the light through the cracks
i thought the dark would help cut the tracks
i was scared to let my heart grow lighter
it seemed bad for the singer / songwriter

but i can’t believe i was about to leave
just to have somethin to write
oh i know it’s not right
about to leave just to see how i’d feel

i never let myself enjoy and relax
always a fight to lay down the tracks
am i a bummer am i a fool am i an outsider
just because it’s supposed to be good for the singer / songwriter

oh i can’t believe i was about to leave
just to put it in song
oh i know it’s wrong
about to leave to fake somethin real

i can’t believe i was about to leave
turn off and plug out the jacks
and get blood on my tracks
about to leave you
for a god [bad word] review

i can’t believe
i was about to leave
no i can’t believe
i was about to leave
