Leave It All Behind

I need to take my time running from you I need to run away and seek some shelter It's about time I take control of my future And take the sting away I need some answers to these questions I need to borrow what I lack in understanding It's about time that I kill the past and find a way To take the pain away Excuse me for asking, but I need a basket To put all of my worries away Pardon my grasping, but I need a reason Not to throw this life away What am I supposed to do with the time I have left in the city Oh little do I know I want to pick up these pieces, carve them into reasons I want to reach in my insides, and pull out a brand new person It's about time that I stop these games that I'm playing And throw it all away Excuse me for praying, but I need your taming Of this slew of awful lies Excuse me for begging, but I need your trust That I won't mess this up anymore I know what I'm supposed to do with the time I have left in the city I need to leave it all behind I need to leave it all behind Excuse me for asking, but I need a basket To put all of my worries away Pardon my grasping, but I need a reason Not to throw this life away Excuse me for praying, but I need your taming Of this slew of awful lies Excuse me for begging, but I need your trust That I won't mess this up anymore I know what I'm supposed to do with this time I have left in the city I know what I have to do, I gotta leave the city I need to leave it all behind
