Leave Me

I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you

Cause in those moments I desert you

And I realize I don't deserve you, no I don't deserve you but

I'm praying on my knees begging that you won't leave me

But you can do so much better please believe me

So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I

I made a promise on the day we said vows

I swore to love you and to never let you down

I told your father I'd protect you from the pain

I told your mother I would shelter you from rain

You were the only one that I have ever dreamed of

My perfect truth that I've hidden with every lie

If only I was less concerned about our future

I might have noticed you needed me by your side

And after all of those days, you kept it inside

Don't know how I missed every tear that you cried

I love you enough to let you be free

So I can't blame you baby, it started with me

Cause I loved you, but left you in moments of need

We broke like a promise to heavy to keep

And baby, it kills me lately

Cause maybe I'm the reason why

I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you

Cause in those moments I desert you

And I realize I don't deserve you, no I don't deserve you but

I'm praying on my knees begging that you won't leave me

But you can do so much better please believe me

So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I

I'm so sorry for the way things went down

You deserve a king and I'm not wearing no crown

There's tears welling up in your eyes

And I'd be lying through my teeth if I told you I was surprised

What did I think?

Would happen after all of this time

It's like you blink and seven years just passes you by

I wish that I could run it back and right my wrongs

Maybe you wouldn't be gone if I wasn't chasing these songs

And I spent my energy trying to actually be a better man

Lost my centerpiece, and I don't think you understand

What you meant to me, our love was deeper than ration

But never loved you enough to set you free from my passion, I

I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you

Cause in those moments I desert you

And I realize I don't deserve you, no I don't deserve you but

I'm praying on my knees begging that you won't leave me

But you can do so much better please believe me

So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I

But maybe we had to break to grow

Maybe I had to lose to learn

But when I hear your name I feel the pain

In my heart still burns

Maybe this is my sacrifice

Maybe I'll love you my whole life

But I'll lay down my pride

And hope you find me on the other side

I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you

Cause in those moments I desert you

And I realize I don't deserve you, no I don't deserve you but

I'm praying on my knees begging that you won't leave me

But you can do so much better please believe me

So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I
