Don't Have to Speak
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.
So you spend all of your days
Falling asleep, to dream
'Cause you know that look in the head
Ain't what it used to be
And you keep on telling yourself, baby
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
For me, for me
You did your time
Did you do the best you could?
Spend so much time
No one else ever would
You get so frustrated
When you see the ones you thought would never leave
How could it be? How could they leave?
Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go
Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go
Have no regrets
That's what you would always say
You'll have respect
If you make it your own way
If you run out of patience
You will find out what it means to lose it all
Losing it all
Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go
Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go
Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go
And you keep on telling yourself, baby
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
For me
