Leave with a Song

I got a bag full of dreams

At the bottom of the bed

And I'm trying to convince myself

To leave tonight

Now I'm lying here dressed

With the covers to my head

Only two doors away

From the world outside

So now I'm tiptoe sneaking

Trying to keep the floor from creaking

Cause I don't want nobody to know

I got a pocket full of reasons

And it ain't hard leaving

From a place that was never home

You can take all of it

Take everything

Cause I can't stand the thought of it

When it's all said and done

Don't want no part of it

Cause the truth is

When you get down to the heart of it

All I'm leaving here with is a song

A song

Maybe the verse will be about

How he stays out late

All the while

Telling me he's hung up at work

But the hotel receipt in the pocket

Of his shirt saying that he's really

Hung up on her

So now I'm tiptoe creeping

Tell myself to keep breathing

Cause we're getting to the heart

Of this song

I'm leaving everything behind

Cause I made up my mind

That there's really nothing here

That I want

You can take all of it

Take everything

Cause I can't stand the thought of it

When it's all said and done

Don't want no part of it

Cause the truth is

When you get down to the heart of it

All I'm leaving here with is a song

A song

I got my head hung low

But my hope is high

Trying to thumb a ride to anywhere

Weight of the world on my shoulders

But my heart is light

Ain't got a dime

But I don't care

I don't care

I don't care

I don't care anymore, no

You can take all of it

Take everything

Cause I can't stand the thought of it

When it's all said and done

Don't want no part of it

Cause the truth is

When you get down to the heart of it

All I'm leaving here with is a song

A song
