lyrics

I've got fifty years left on this earth
Tell me why would you leave me
I don't think life has gotten much worse
So why would you leave me

Is it because
There's volcanoes in the north Pacific
Or a rock controlling all of our tides
Or nine planets in the solar system
The size I can't surmise

I don't have much invested
In all of the questions that people believe in
But if you had two outcomes to choose from
Why would you leave me

Is it because
There are wars that we've never heard of
Or entire families who sat and cried
Or because we appeared from a couple cells
That were trapped inside some ice

It must have been what your family has told you
It must have been what the movies have shown you
But there is no happiness perfection to grab you from
The world you made you've grown to hate
To a white picket fence parade

If you leave
There's volcanoes in the north Pacific
If you leave
There's fifty years worth of life to live in
If you leave
There are wars yet to be fought, but not by my side
It's up to you if you leave
It's up to you
