New Song

So walk away from the places that you've come to call home

Leave us and this wreck behind, learn to breath on your own

For beneath a failed routine there must be a new song

And I will watch you sing even though you're gone

For below the sky, under the sun facing the tide

This beach is clear and alone as I

Wondering where did you go tonight

And if how you left was right, giving up without goodbye

Then why does it still feel like you ran away

So walk away to keep yourself safe,

where no one will be pressuring you to smile

And I'll miss you when you're gone

And we'll miss you when you're walking away

And I'm still listening for that voice, to hear you sing

A sign that you're ok

Because I miss you now

How can you say you're happy now?

Why couldn't you just stay?

So glad to hear that you're standing strong,

facing a new hope so fresh to you

And any time that you ever felt like home,

I'll remember your new song and how it drowned me out

Because now I'm singing too, screaming at the top of my lungs

" You look so better off, you look so better off standing strong"
