Far Behind

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.

Now maybe

I didn't mean to treat you bad

But I did it anyway

And then maybe

Some would say your life was sad

But you lived it anyway

And so maybe

Your friends they stand around they watch you crumble

As you falter to the ground

And then someday

Your friends they stand beside as you were flying

Oh, you were flying, oh, so high

But them someday people look at you

For what they call their own

They watch you suffer

Yeah, they hear you calling home

But then some day we could take our time

To brush the leaves aside

So you can reach us

But you left me far behind

Now maybe

I didn't mean to treat you so bad

But I did it anyway

Now maybe

Some would say you're left with what you had

But you couldn't share the pain

No, no, no

Couldn't share the pain

They watch you suffer

Now maybe

I could have made my own mistakes

But I live with what I've known

And then maybe

We might share in something great

But won't you look at where we've grown

Won't you look at where we've gone

But then someday comes tomorrow holds

A sense of what I feel for you in my mind

As you trip the final line

And that cold day when you lost control

Shame you left my life so soon you should have told me

But you left me far behind

Now maybe

I didn't mean to treat you so bad

But I did it anyway

Now maybe

Some would say you're left with what you had

But you couldn't share the pain

No, no, no

Oh, no

No, no, no, no, no

Now maybe

I didn't mean to treat you so bad

But I did it anyway

Now maybe

Some would say you're left with what you had

But you couldn't share the pain

I said times have changed your friends

They come and watch you crumble to the ground

They watch you suffer

Yeah, they hold you down, hold you down

Now maybe brother, maybe love

I didn't mean to treat you bad

But you left me far behind

Left me far behind

Left me far behind
