Don't Leave This Place

Spongecola

Not the one
Not the wave
Not the call you failed to make
Consequently left unsteady

Class pictures
Faded scribbles
Not the bane of my existence
Just the canvas of what was

Don’t look at me
And i won’t look at you
I won’t mind you
I am neither
Can’t you see?

Don’t leave this place
Where learned to stand to stand on our feet
Don’t leave this place
Where our lives were once entwined

Common sense of the morning
As mere remnants of a past
Little nothings left behind

Back then we would talk
And we’d talk
And we’d talk about
How real it could be

Repaint my orange sky
Squeeze it out and i’ll
Keep it on together
Hold it in forever

We’re just passing through
Where our lives were once entwined

I wish i could stay
Dream of something better
Dream of something bigger
