saw a group of people forming
round a figure lying down
and someone runs to make a phone call
and the man kneels on the ground
the man kneels on the ground
theres a tightening in my chest
i know that Im drawn in
oh god let it not be - you
dont leave us
dont leave like this
dont leave me here again
im not quitting on you
no one else
youre not quitting on us
no running out
the colour in your shirt is darkening,
against the paleness of your skin
i remember how you held the goldfish
swimming around in a plastic bag
swimming around in a plastic bag
you held it up so high
in the bright lights of the fair
it slipped and fell
we looked everywhere
dont leave us (your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
dont leave like this (your heart is strong, youre holding on)
dont leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
im not quitting on you
theres no one else
youre not quitting on us
theres no way out
no way out
dont leave us
dont leave like this
dont leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
im not quitting on you
theres no one else
youre not quitting on us
no running away - no way out
