If I Leave Today - Autumn Kings

The walls were caving in

I grabbed what I could fit

My hands, they were shaking

My head was in a spin

My feet felt like a weight

With every step I’d take

I could feel the pressure

Like a dog, I was running for the gate

When I am gone

Don’t follow me;

I wanna leave now

I won’t be long

Not coming back to this here town

Don’t lie awake

It’ll only take a few days

How long will it be till you find out?

I’m

Tired of staying (la la la la la la lala)

So I’m leaving (la la la la la la lala)

A memory (If I leave today, you’ll never know)

I’ll have to be

I walked up on the train

And every stranger’s face

Looked the other way

So I just stood in place

The ground began to shake

The walls, they walked away

I was running out of time

But I wasn’t running late

When I am gone

Don’t follow me;

I wanna leave now

I won’t be long

Not coming back to this here town

Don’t lie awake

It’ll only take a few days

How long will it be till you find out?

Tired of staying (la la la la la la lala)

So I’m leaving (la la la la la la lala)

A memory (If I leave today, you’ll never know)

Just let me be

Just another runaway

Left to find a better place

Packed it all up in a case

No expression on his face

He’s leaving out, not checking in

Gone and swept up with the wind

Take a picture while you can

A memory is what I’ll have to be

Just let me be

A memory (la la la la la la lala)

I’ll have to be (If I leave today, you’ll never know)

A memory (la la la la la la lala)

Just let me go
