[male

Soft

Yeah.

You

really

thought

you

had

it

all,

didn't

you?

But

you

lost

the

only

heart

that

was

true.

Dr.

Rey

I

see

you

watching

from

the

distance

now

Checking

my

status,

wondering

how

I

turned

the

pain

into

this

glow

I

wear

You

left

the

garden,

left

it

looking

bare

I

poured

my

soul

into

a

cup

you

spilled

You

wanted

diamonds,

every

dream

fulfilled

But

I

was

giving

you

the

breath

of

life

And

all

you

ever

wanted

was

the

strife

You

never

noticed

what

was

in

your

hand

Too

busy

searching

for

a

distant

land.

Now

I’

m

the

man

you

left

behind

The

one

you

swore

you’

d

never

find

I

gave

you

love,

you

wanted

more

You

walked

away

and

closed

the

door

But

look

at

me

now,

I’

m

standing

tall

You

lost

the

best,

you

lost

it

all

I’

m

doing

better,

doing

fine

I’

m

not

the

man

you

left

behind

I’

m

not

the

man

you

left

behind (

Oh,

no,

no) (

Not

the

man

you

left

behind)

Good

was

never

good

enough

for

you

I

painted

skies

and

you

destroyed

the

blue

I

didn't

have

the

millions

in

the

bank

But

I

was

the

captain

of

the

ship

that

sank

Because

you

steered

it

to

the

rocks

of

pride

With

nowhere

left

for

your

regret

to

hide

You

wanted

status,

superficial

gold

While

I

was

keeping

all

your

secrets

cold

You

chose

a

lifestyle

that

will

never

last

While

I

am

healing

from

the

bitter

past.

Now

I’

m

the

man

you

left

behind

The

one

you

swore

you’

d

never

find

I

gave

you

love,

you

wanted

more

You

walked

away

and

closed

the

door

But

look

at

me

now,

I’

m

standing

tall

You

lost

the

best,

you

lost

it

all

I’

m

doing

better,

doing

fine

I’

m

not

the

man

you

left

behind (

Yeah,

I'm

soaring

high) (

Far

away

from

you)

Don't

come

knocking

when

the

rain

starts

falling

Don't

come

calling

when

the

ghost

is

haunting

You

don't

deserve

the

version

that

you

see

This

new

success,

this

better

part

of

me

It

wasn't

luck,

it

was

the

love

you

killed

The

empty

space

you

never

truly

filled.

Now

I’

m

the

man

you

left

behind

The

one

you

swore

you’

d

never

find

I

gave

you

love,

you

wanted

more

You

walked

away

and

closed

the

door

But

look

at

me

now,

I’

m

standing

tall

You

lost

the

best,

you

lost

it

all

I’

m

doing

better,

doing

fine

I’

m

not

the

man

you

left

behind

Yeah.

I'm

good

now.

Better

than

the

man

you

left

behind.

Keep

walking. (
