What About the One Who Leaves

Lyrics

[Intro] (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Verse 1] Right now, I bet you're telling your friends That I'm a messed up, heartless narcissist Right now, I bet you're drying your eyes Like you're the only one who's hurting tonight [Pre-Chorus] And there's a million songs about the one done wrong [Chorus] But, what about the one who goes? The one who's got to cry on the way back home? What about the one who knows It was for the best but their heart's still broke? The one who's on the other side gets all the sympathy But, what, what about thе one who leaves? (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Verse 2] Right now, I keep tеlling myself Don't call, don't text, don't wish you well 'Cause, right now, I'm so full of regret Thinking, "Did this really have to end?" [Pre-Chorus] And there's a million guys who would not think twice [Chorus] But, what about the one who goes? The one who's got to cry on the way back home? What about the one who knows It was for the best but their heart's still broke? The one who's on the other side gets all the sympathy But, what, what about the one who leaves? (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Post-Chorus] What about the one who leaves? (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Bridge] You'll never know how hard I tried to fight this awful feeling You'll never know the hours I spent staring at your ceiling You'll never know the pain But sometimes the hard thing and the right thing Are the same (Ah-ah, ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) [Chorus] But, what about the one who goes? The one who's got to cry on the way back home? What about the one who knows It was for the best but their heart's still broke? The one who's on the other side gets all the sympathy But, what, what about the one who leaves?
