The Girl I Left Behind

The girl I left behind me

Was bad at being good

The happiest arsonist that ever was

The happiest communist that ever was

The girl I left behind me

You said she would do

I know who I want to be, be worthy of you

So why do I change myself to be worthy of you?

She's a needer, a bleeder

And she likes to be on top

She's a girlfriend, a whirlwind

And not so logical

But she's an ocean in motion

And you won't let her shine

The girl I left behind me

We've spoken once or twice

She says I have twice her strength

Well isn't that nice?

She says I can call her anywhere or anytime

She's a needer, a bleeder

And I know that says a lot

She's a girlfriend, a whirlwind

And not so logical

But she's an ocean in motion

And magical

You won't let her shine

She's an ocean in motion

And magical

You won't let her shine

You watch me as I fall apart for you

You watch me as I fall apart for you

And I waste myself, and I waste myself

And I waste myself

The girl I left behind me

Was bad at being good

The happiest arsonist that ever was

The happiest communist that ever was
