leave my mind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tell myself I don’t care, it’s been 31 days
Tell my friends I moved on without using your name
I tried, oh, I tried, oh, I tried
I play out I might see you, it keeps me awake
Use new streets like diversions to keep you away
I try, oh, I try, oh, I try
Do what I can to survive
Do what I can to cut ties
You took my weed and two years of my precious time
Everything you could find
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Took everything that’s mine
But didn’t leave that behind
Leave my mind
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Said you’d let me alone and you’d give me the space
But you keep coming ‘round when I'm doing okay
You lied, oh, you lied, oh, you lied
Do what I can to survive
Promise myself that I'm fine
You took my weed and two years of my precious time
Everything you could find
No, no, no
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Took everything that’s mine
But didn’t leave that behind
Leave my mind
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Leave my mind, if you don't mind, yeah yeah
Leave my mind, if you don't mind, yeah yeah
Leave my mind, if you’re not mine, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Why can't you leave my mind?
Leave my mind, if you don't mind, yeah yeah
Leave my mind, if you don't mind, yeah yeah
Leave my mind, if you’re not mine, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Took everything that’s mine
But didn’t leave that behind
Leave my mind
Why can’t you leave my mind?
Leave my mind, if you don't mind, yeah yeah
Why can't you leave my mind?
Leave my mind, if you don’t mind, yeah yeah
Took everything that's mine
But didn't leave that behind
Leave my mind, if you’re not mine, yeah yeah
Leave my mind, yeah, yeah
Why can't you leave my mind?
