Don't Turn Around Lyrics

Don't turn around, see me in the same place that I used to be

Weeds and roots and brambles wrap around my feet

Stuck here in this moment that I've overgrown

The same clothes, the same road

Still studying mathematics, listening to 'Jack Names The Planets'

You know the same joke weren't funny fifteen years ago

And they sure as hell ain't funny anymore

Just turn around, I wanted to be sure that you'd noticed me

Through all the time that passed there's no controlling me

I wanted to be certain that there's no more fear

You know I've grown

I know we haven't spoken cos you left me beat and broken

Things change, I'm strong

You hurt me fifteen years ago but you sure as hell won't hurt me anymore

Now I'll just fade away

The world stopped spinning in this town the day you went away

I had to call the talking clock to make it through the day fifteen years ago

And I must have, must have messed it up

And I don't expect to make that same mistake again

Don't turn around

Don't turn around again
