Don't Leave Me

Whippersnapper

I remember times we used

To spend within this room

In darkness I can still pretend,

I can still pretend she's with me.

They always say that time

Will wash away

All the painful memories,

But I want them to stay

I want them to stay inside me.

I never said I wanted your sympathy

You can take you're bleeding heart

Right out the door

Don't leave me

I never said I needed your empathy

I'll stay inside this room

Forevermore believing.



How can a person simply dissappear?

You close your eyes one day

And vanish in the air

And no one is prepared to take it.

But what if I refuse to let her go?

Her picture on the mirror

And her scent upon my clothes

Her scent upon my clothes for comfort.



I never said I wanted your sympathy

You can take you're bleeding heart

Right out the door

Don't leave me

I never said I needed your empathy

I'll stay inside this room

Forevermore believing



If you can touch and you can taste it

And it's nothing like you've ever felt before

And you see it and you can feel it

And its nothing like you've ever felt before Slowly slipping

Slowly slipping away

I never said I wanted your sympathy

You can take you're bleeding heart

Right out the door

Don't leave me

I never said I needed your empathy

I'll stay inside this room

Forevermore believing.

I never said I wanted your sympathy

But it's something that I've never needed more

Don't leave me

I never said I needed your empathy

Sometimes we just don't know what's in store Believe me.
