"Had To Leave" lyrics

"Had To Leave"

You know you broke the rule, the one you made
When you ran away from all, you were afraid
And it's me who finds it hard to take
There's a reason you're so obviously in pain

You've never been the one to see your head
You prefer to spend your days lying in bed
Confused, you are the one thing that you hate
Still I love you, but you're not just one mistake

If you must ask why
Then you'll never know, deny
Soon the truth will pass
As the lie will grow
Have to ask why, then you'll never know

You sat above the crowd at such a height
While life's been dancing by, you've tried to hide
It's you who never took the time
To say out loud what's playing on your mind

If you must ask why
Then you'll never know, deny
Soon the truth will pass
As the lie will grow
Have to ask why, then you'll never know

I know it's hard to see so far ahead
It doesn't matter what you've heard or read
I know that you are barely hanging on
Just know you're not the only one

If you must ask why
Then you'll never know, deny
Soon the truth will pass
As the lie will grow

If you must ask why
Then you'll never know, deny
Soon the truth will pass
As the lie will grow
Have to ask why, then you'll never know
