Lyrics

you think you see right through me

You believe you understand me completely

but i don’t think you understand

I don't think you grasp the situation

it’s not that i don’t care for you

It's not that I lack feelings for you

it is just not what i had planned

Things are not going as I had envisioned

i’m caught between the things that hurt you the most

I'm torn between causing you pain and giving you freedom

and the things that set you free

Struggling with choices that either hurt or liberate

maybe the least that i, i can do is walking away from you

Perhaps the best I can do is to leave you


come on leave me on the floor

Encouraging to abandon me emotionally

and i’ll be waiting here

Assuring I'll be waiting despite the separation

it’s the last dance, you can take my hand

This is the final opportunity, take my hand

right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

Emphasizing the urgency to leave me on the floor

right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

(Repetition for emphasis)


i stay up like we used to

Staying awake reminiscing about our past

watching old videos

Reviewing nostalgic videos of meaningful nights

of every night that meant something

Reflecting on significant moments before nightlife changed

before all the clubs where closed

Before the closure of clubs impacted our experiences

i feel your hands around my neck

Feeling the intensity of your touch around my neck

the pulse in both your wrists

Sensing the heartbeat in both of your wrists

i did not safe the last dance

I didn't save the last dance for a memory like this

for a memory like this

(Empty line)


come on leave me on the floor

Expressing the waiting despite separation

and i’ll be waiting here

Promising to take your hand after abandonment

and i promise to take your hand

Repeating the call to leave on the floor

right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

(Repetition for emphasis)

right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

(Empty line)


you turned out to be

Realization that you turned out to be temporary

another thing that did not last

Another transient element in my life

another bit of present

Just an addition to my past

just an add to my past

Contributing to the collection of memories


right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

Reiterating the plea to leave on the floor

right now, right now, come on leave me on the floor

(Repetition for emphasis)
