You left me in that parking lot,
And I,
Didn't look in the rearview,
You found that space,
It was yours to grow,
And I,
Couldn't take that away from you,
The wind blew my tracks out of view,
But I know they needed to,
I let them carry me away from you,
You were golden all this time
Know that I leave with a smile in this instant,
And your letter by my side,
Soon enough I'll be somewhere distant,
Not leaving you but that state of mind,
I can't keep holding on to,
A promise made in potential time,
I'll always be your struggle,
You'll always be my shine
And I'll be with you,
I'll be with you,
I'll be with you till the end of the line
I've never carried myself,
Always relied on someone or something else,
You're all I carry with me,
In the world with a misplaced sense of self,
Old hope in the back of old friends throats,
But I have to do this on my own,
New hope on the shores of another coast,
Sometimes it's okay to be alone
I'll be with you,
I'll be with you,
I'll be with you till the end of the line
