Couldn't you take this chance?
I’m on the road again, and this time I’m not coming home
This is our last dance, you should have said goodbye when you had the chance
Because the help they offered wasn’t wanted the things you said never helped either
The way I ran it took me much farther
I had to leave or else I wouldn’t have made it through
I wouldn’t have left, but no one believed
That this wasn’t good for me, I knew no one would breakthrough
If you gave me a chance you would have seen
That the “Help” I needed wasn’t them, it was only from me
I didn’t need them, I only needed you but it seems you got stuck between the two
Could you take the chance that you couldn’t help?
Do you know if you would have dealt?
If I left the rain, the blue sky and you, if I left it all behind?
Well I was terrified; you still wouldn’t take the chance
I still don’t know why I gave you that last dance
Maybe it is all your fault, but I don’t mind
But I can’t pretend that you’re always to blame
My life was bad from the moment it started
Me and you we should have parted
I realized that, but you still stayed confined
You said that loving me made you all you could be
Well if that’s the truth then why couldn’t you try?
Why’d you make me have to leave it all behind?
The chance you had was left to gather dust
Held away for another rainy day
But now, I’m on the road again
I promise you I’m not coming home
This isn’t how I wanted to be shown
The 4 white walls couldn’t keep me in my mind
And when I got out, who ever said I’d be okay?
But it’s to late to try, because the music slowed down
And I left you standing alone left I know I cried
I never took you, I never told you
Because you would stop me
You’d tell me to be okay and kind
That can’t happen when your being a mime
Doing the actions but none of the words are there
I still don’t know you thought that this was fair
You said sometimes love is about what’s best for the other
Well I’m telling you right now you shouldn’t have bothered
Because I ran away from the only person who I knew
I ran away and you know this was true
A coward I was, but I’d never say it
The crimes I’d do, The price I’d never have to pay it
The people in there with their fake compassion
Words they spoke we’re always said with caution
For fear the patients would get it in their head
That maybe they weren’t as bad
But I wouldn’t know because I’m no where near
I’m not coming home and I’ll miss you a lot
But standing around isn’t how time is bought
So I ran away, and ever since that day
Things are worse, and sometimes fate takes it course
The Alcohol whispers my name and it tells me that
I’m not all to blame
The crack cocaine can make the pain go away
But nothing can ever make me go back
The trust in you may always be something I lack
My home I knew is not the one I know now
This is our last dance, you should have said goodbye when you had the chance
Because the help they offered wasn’t wanted the things you said never helped either
The way I ran it took me much farther
I had to leave or else I wouldn’t have made it through
I wouldn’t have left, but no one believed
