Lyrics

She stood on the tracks
Waving her arms
Leading me to that third rail shock
Quick as a wink
She changed her mind

She gave me a night
That's all it was
What will it take until I stop
Kidding myself
Wasting my time

There's nothing else I can do
'Cause I'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'Cause I'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'Cause I'm giving it all to leyna

We laid on the beach
Watching the tide
She didn't tell me there were rocks
Under the waves
Right off the shore
Washed up on the sand
Barely alive
Wishing the undertow would stop
How can a man take anymore

There's nothing else I can do
'Cause I'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'Cause I'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'Cause I'm giving it all to leyna

I'm failing in school
Losing my friends
Making my family lose their minds
I don't want to eat
I don't want to sleep
I only want leyna one more time

Now I'm in my room
Watching the tube
Telling myself she still may drop
Over to say
She's changed her mind

So, I wait in the dark
Listening for her
Instead of my old man saying stop..
Kidding yourself
Wasting your time

There's nothing else I can do
'Cause I'm doing it all for leyna
I don't want anyone new
'Cause I'm living it all for leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'Cause I'm giving it all to leyna

All for leyna
All for leyna
