Second Act - Varsity

I made a list of the people who left

And swore up and down that they would come back

It was the length of my body twice over

And over, they told me the distance would make me grow stronger

But mother, don’t worry

Tell your people we’re coming back

It’s not that easy

Why does everyone always leave me?

Wasting away

I’m never coming back

Haven’t you said

I need a second act?

I’m never coming back

I won’t look back

I’m never coming back

If finding yourself is something that matters

Well, ask me again and I’ll tell you just who you are

It won’t cost anything except your loyalty

Why don’t you promise me?

You’ll try not to worry

Every time is a compromise

It’s not that easy

Why does everyone always leave me?

But

Mother, don’t worry

Tell your people we’re coming back, coming back

It’s not that easy

Why does everyone always leave me?

Wasted away

I’m never coming back

Haven’t you said

I need a second act?

I’m never coming back

I won’t look back

I’m never coming back

But mother, don’t worry

Tell your people we’re coming back, coming back

It’s not that easy

Why does everyone always leave me?

But

Mother, don’t worry

Try not to worry

I made a list of the people who left
