It's been fifteen years since we left you on the street
I didn't see a single tear roll down your cheek
Not that I cared, I was barely four years old
But mum was right, we were both just moving on
But that's what you couldn't see
Wasn't sure if you really wanted me
Now I'm 21 years old
So what's seven months
You couldn't even fucking call
You always say you're proud of me
But these autumn leaves fall like my self-esteem
I'll hold tight my insecurities
I left dad back in anna-bay with every single thing we made
Through the glass I watched you disappear
Was the coldest winter day that year
And I'm grateful, not that I have shown it
Never from a lack of love, more like a useless poet
You always say you're proud of me
But these autumn leaves fall like my self-esteem
I'll hold tight my insecurities
Spring time came so suddenly
Bet you couldn't even bear to see the better man I’d grown to be
Now I’m starting to realize
The choices you made will never shape me
Now I’m starting to come
To terms with all the thoughts that cloud my head
We'll make it through you'll see, that's what you said to me
We'll make it through you'll see, that's what you said to me
You always say you're proud of me
But these autumn leaves fall like my self-esteem
I'll hold tight my insecurities
Spring time came so suddenly
Bet you couldn't even bear to see the better man I’d grown to be
I'll watch these autumn leaves, hold tight my insecurities
I'll watch these autumn leaves, blow them away my summer breeze
