Lyrics
I made a list of the people who left
And swore up and down that they would come back
It was the length of my body twice over
And over, they told me the distance would make me grow stronger
But mother, don't worry
Tell your people we're coming back
It's not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me
Wasting away
I'm never coming back
Haven't you said
I need a second act
I'm never coming back
I won't look back
I'm never coming back
If finding yourself is something that matters
Well me ask me again and I'll tell you just who you are
It won't cost anything except your loyalty
Why don't you promise me
You'll try not to worry
Every time is a compromise
It's not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me
But,
Mother, don't worry
Tell your people we're coming back, coming back
It's not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me
Wasted away
I'm never coming back
Haven't you said
I need a second act
I'm never coming back
I won't look back
I'm never coming back
But mother, don't worry
Tell your people we're coming back, coming back
It's not that easy
Why does everyone always leave me
But,
Mother don't worry
Try not to worry
I made a list of the people who left
