Left Behind lyrics

[Verse 1]

When she asks me where I'm from

I catch my tongue before saying I'm American

It's getting embarrassing (It's getting embarrassing)

Freedom's running up a fever

Change ain't nothing but a T-shirt

All my heroes need a rework

Or they're in the freezer

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm feeling

Like I don't have a reason to believe in

Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind

I'm bleeding out

[Chorus]

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna gеt left behind

I wanna lead a gеneration

But the train's about to leave the station

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind

[Post-Chorus]

But I don't wanna get left behind

[Verse 2]

Maybe they would listen to me one time

If I died on the frontline

As a martyr in the bloodline

Instead, I'm singing in the sunshine

Oh no, no, no

I talked to an old man, he said, "Listen, son

I, too, thought I'd start a revolution

If you don't die young, then you live to see

That which you fear is that which you become"

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm feeling

Like I don't have a reason to believe in

Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind

I'm bleeding out

I'm grieving

But does any of this pain have meaning?

Or is it all for nothing?

They're leaving me behind, I'm bleeding out

[Chorus]

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind

I wanna lead a generation

But the train's about to leave the station

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind

[Post-Chorus]

But I don't wanna get left behind

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm feeling

Like I don't have a reason to believe in

Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind

I'm bleeding out

I'm grieving

But does any of this pain have meaning?

Or is it all for nothing?

They're leaving me behind, I'm bleeding out

[Chorus]

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)

I wanna lead a generation

But the train's about to leave the station

I don't wanna move on

But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)

[Post-Chorus]

But I don't wanna get left behind

But I don't wanna get left behind
