Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long Whisper secrets that I need to know No rest for your wicked mind that's pounding out your head Make it seem real, real enough for me Sing about love, what makes you happy We can hum to the sound of my own sadness for tonight You make it seem real enough, real enough for me You make it seem real enough, real enough for me Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long Spin me backwards, look what I've missed out on No room to ignore yourself Now you bloom into what you are You make it seem real enough, real enough for me Don't say a word, strum your chord, sing your melody I pull the shades, look outside, nothing I wanna see Don't say a word, close your eyes, sing your melody Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long Don't you leave me hanging 'round for long For long, for long, for long Pictures of you, innocent and free A couple things that you will never be I play to the sound of my own sadness for weeks on end I look and I see your scars and I don't think you're wrong You make it seem real enough, but it doesn't last for long For long, for long, for long (For long) So don't you put me in the lion's den If you don't want to fuck me up (For long) Don't throw me to the ground When I don't need picking up (For long) Yeah, I'll be everywhere at once For whatever you want (For long) I'll take you to the mountain top So you can see how far I've come
