True Maturity Comes From Letting Go of the Past Lyrics by Ellis Omega

Hope Is For the Ruined

2016

Verse 1:
City sidewalks never looked so clean before.
The only image I had of this was you walking out your door.
The last memory I have of you that's left in store
Is when you smiled, and I was guided by your light
To be safe and sound in a better town.
You'd be asking, "Why you frowning
When you know your soul lights up my sky?".
Chorus 1:
Repeat this back to me,
"I'm so sorry". I'm asking please don't leave.
I wear my heart upon my left sleeve.
You tore it out, and now there's a hole in me.
Verse 2:
Tear stained cheeks that seem to run rampant all around this town
Drip so slowly from some gorgeous eyes of the color brown.
You'd hold my hand, and turn your face away so I couldn't see.
The only reason you're doing this is because of me.
Chorus 2:
Repeat this back to me,
"I'm so sorry". I'm asking please don't leave.
I wear my heart upon my left sleeve.
You tore it out, and now there's a hole in me.
Chorus 3:
Repeat this back to me,
"I'm so sorry". I'm asking please don't leave.
I wear my heart upon my left sleeve.
You tore it out, and now there's a hole in me.
Verse 3:
Your feet move so slowly when you're walking 'round in them heels.
I'm kind of glad I didn't go last night,
'Cause then you'd steal my heart away
For another day.
What could you say?
Oh, you're not even trying.
Chorus 4:
Repeat this back to me,
"I'm so sorry". I'm asking please don't leave.
I wear my heart upon my left sleeve.
You tore it out, and now there's a hole in me.
Chorus 5:
Repeat this back to me,
"I'm so sorry". I'm asking please don't leave.
I wear my heart upon my left sleeve.
You tore it out, and now there's a hole in me.
