Lyrics

I'm Leaving... Soon

[Verse 1]

So you're all 'bout the subtle bombs

I don't care about the war

And you're all 'bout the sex you've had

And who you miss

[Chorus]

Yeah i'm leaving...

Soon

Is what we'll all say

Crash in the lake

Christmas lights

Broken October

Last Chance

Take back

[Verse 2]

So you're all 'bout your history

And with whom you share it

And you're all about not getting drunk

And what does that leave?

[Chorus]

And i'm leaving...

Soon

Is what we'll all say

Crash in the lake

Christmas lights

Broken October

Last Chance

Take back

[Chorus]

I'm leaving...

Soon

Is what we'll all say

Crash in the lake

Christmas lights

Broken October

Last Chance

Take back

Anything you said

[Outro]

I'm leaving...

Soon

I'm lеaving...

Soon

I'm leaving...
