[Intro]
When we were in our youth
We had dreams that we could fly
We had friends that were invisible
And love that never died
And as we grew old I felt the pain
We always knew the truth
The love would heal if we stayed true
To the dreams of our youth

[Verse 1]
I've been walking around for hours
Holding onto stems of flowers
My chest is feeling all your pain
As it began to rain
And now the end has come to this
The little victories I'll miss
Of everything we'd overcome
And all that's said and done

[Chorus]
I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
I'm leaving our war behind
The night that I leave town
[Verse 2]
The walls that you helped me take down
Are only getting taller now
And I've even forgotten how
To stand on my two feet
I wanna say I'm on my own
And happier to be alone
But everything I do alone
Has every bit of you

[Chorus]
I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
I'm leaving our war behind
The night that I leave town
Don't tell me to justify
Living my life without you
I'm leaving my our war behind
The night that I leave town

[Bridge]
All my life it's always the same thing
All my life it's always the same thing
All my life it's always the same thing
It's always the same
It's always the same
It's always the same thing
[Outro]
I'm leaving our war behind
Life can go on without you
