Lyrics

I didn’t have any idea
for making it clear
I didn’t make one more mistake
in making you wait

I didn’t have to tell you
But you wanted to understand
So when the words came out
Why’d you walk around like the bigger man?

Cause if you take the wrong way
I’ll be the only one
and left on the pavement
my crayons melted in the sun

You didn’t ask you only assumed
I’d be more cool
Sights are unseen, slightly obscene
But I keep it clean

I don’t believe I’ve said it
maybe I should speak it out loud
You always seem to forget it
Well how much are you listening now?


Cause if you take the wrong way
I’ll be the only one
and left on the pavement
my crayons melted in the sun
Cause you took the wrong way
I’m left on my own
And something for nothing
Well I’m a leave it alone

Now that you’ve retold my story
The whole world has to play pretend
And if I’m being honest
I never did tell you the end

Cause I took the wrong way
and you won’t ever know
and lunch on the table
is sitting there getting cold
Cause if you take the wrong way
I’ll be the only one
and left on the pavement
my crayons melted in the sun

Cause you took the wrong way
And I’m left on my own
Something for nothing, for nothing
Well I’m, I’m a leave it alone
