lyrics

The overs and unders,
The anchors to weigh us down
The feelings inside
to make us all drown
The over and unders and over and unders and over and unders
We're all gonna drown

The memories we shared
Haunt me in my dreams
Every moment with you
Tears me at the seams
The taste of you lips
The smell of your hair
The feel of your fingers
Are laced with despair
That's the way you leave me...
You leave me lonely

That's the way you leave me,
You leave me wanting more
It's the reason why my breathing
Has me crumpled on the floor
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
You leave me lonely

Who are you to say
That this is better for me?!
When the reason why I stay
Is it's my way of coping
The sex and the drugs
The wine and the cheese
These Hollywood Parties
They don't mean a thing!
That's the way you leave me...
You leave me lonely

That's the way you leave me
You leave me wanting more
It's the reason why my breathing
Has me crumpled on the floor
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
You leave me lonely

And I know I can do this on my own
As the saying goes, You reap what you sow
And I know I can do this on my own
But the fact remains,
I can't let you go

That's the way you leave me
You leave me wanting more
It's the reason why my breathing
Has me crumpled on the floor
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
That's the way you leave me
You leave me lonely.
