Left Behind

I'll meet you here here at the finish line
Waving the flags our fathers built for us
Colours of gold the streets are all aligned
They're aligning for us
There's cameras and lights and family everywhere
More than my life I want to make you proud
See I had the words but they escaped my mouth
They fell to the ground

Explosions in the sky
People looking by but I can't leave you
I won't see you left behind
Carry us through fire
I couldn't say goodbye
Cause I cant leave you
I won't see you left behind

The race goes on and on
Unexpected voices cheer as we're going down
Confetti flies expecting to be the one
It's the only one

When there's a face without a name
These explosions just a game
In a matter of days I'll never be the same
Tomorrow can I change?
If I stop looking at myself maybe I'll see someone else
Needs greater than I have they need all we have
These cliques just don't click they won't fix the problem
I've got them but i choose not to become them
So open up it's bright outside
I would usually stand here I'm thinking we should fight
