I never thought that I would leave you baby But then you left me alone And in the darkest hour I stand here crying Why did you leave me alone? [Hook:] I should've left you alone I should've left you alone When shadows fall behind me They clench my heart in demon rage For the savage, I'm becoming Rises to a failing way [Chorus:] For the longest time, I stood there thinking Till all my anger turned to stone It isn't hard for me to see here lately I'm better off here on my own [Hook] It isn't hard for me to see There's nothing left for you and me And in another world I stand here crying Why didn't you leave me be? It isn't hard for me to see There's nothing left for you and me And in another world I stand here crying Why didn't you leave me be? [Chorus] [Hook] But I wanted control No, I wanted it all So I left it behind With my troubled mind
