How Could You Leave Me Behind?

You said we’d ride or die,

But now I’m left out in the cold, wondering why,

We used to talk for hours, share every thought,

Now I’m just a ghost in the shadows you forgot.

 

We made plans, built dreams, nothing seemed to tear us apart,

But now I’m chasing echoes, still hearing your voice in my heart.

You found someone new, now I’m out in the rain,

I’m here stuck in silence, still feeling the pain.

 

How did I lose you without a goodbye?

You left with no warning, just a blank stare and a lie.

I thought we were stronger than time or space,

But now you’re gone, and I can’t find my place.

 

How could you leave me behind?

I thought we were fine, guess I was blind.

Now you’re out with him, and I’m stuck here alone,

Wondering what happened to the bond we’d known.

How could you leave me behind?

I never saw the signs; never knew I’d be left behind.

I’m still standing in the ruins of us,

But I guess you found someone you trust.

 

I watch from a distance as you laugh and you smile,

While I sit in the back, waiting in denial.

You were my brother, my partner in crime,

But now I’m just lost, wasting my time.

 

We had everything—at least, I thought we did,

Now I'm lost in thought when we used to kid.

You’re out there with him, you found your new crew,

And I’m stuck in the past, wondering what I could’ve done too.

 

How did I lose you without a goodbye?

You left with no warning, just a blank stare and a lie.

I thought we were stronger than time or space,

But now you’re gone, and I can’t find my place.

 

How could you leave me behind?

I thought we were fine, guess I was blind.

Now you’re out with him, and I’m stuck here alone,

Wondering what happened to the bond we’d known.

How could you leave me behind?

I never saw the signs; never knew I’d be left behind.

I’m still standing in the ruins of us,

But I guess you found someone you trust.

 

Maybe I was never enough,

Maybe I held on too tight, was I too rough?

But I gave you everything I had,

And you slipped away without looking back.

I still remember when we said we’d be forever,

But forever’s just a word that means nothing now—never.

 

How could you leave me behind?

I thought we were fine, guess I was blind.

Now you’re out with him, and I’m stuck here alone,

Wondering what happened to the bond we’d known.

How could you leave me behind?

I never saw the signs; never knew I’d be left behind.

I’m still standing in the ruins of us,

But I guess you found someone you trust.

 

How could you leave me behind?

Guess that’s the way it goes when you’re left behind.

I’m still stuck here, waiting for the end of this rhyme,

While you’ve moved on, and I’m lost in time.
