 My first tweet 🐣 ever was about one drop in the ocean 🌊 

Anyway … did you read this 

Right where you left me 

People hook up,  get married
Bangers get born, truth get buried
Faces change, rumors fly through blue eyes
But I'm right where you left me
Matched sets look after the other
Cages burn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I, I'm right where you left me

Help, I'm still at best nonchalant
Still forced in a scurry I’m naught
Cross-legged in the dim light
They say, "What a sad sight"

I, I swear you could hear a hair pin drop
Right when I felt the hopeful stop
Glass shattered on the white cloth
Everybody moved on

I, I stayed there
Lust collected on my shaved-off hair
They expected me to find somewhere
Some perspective, but I sat and stared
Right where you left me
You left me no, oh, you left me no
You left me no choice but to stay here forever
You left me, you left me no, oh, you left me no
You left me no choice but to stay here forever

Do you ever hear about the *Hearts* who get broken?

Time went on for everybody else, they won't show it

It’s still just you and me inside our fantasy

How it was supposed to be
Did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion?
Break-ups happen every day, you don't have to lose it

“He’s still part of me” inside her fantasy
And you're sitting in front of me
At the restaurant, when I was still the one you want
Cross-legged in the dim light, everything was just right

I, I could feel the mascara run
You told me that you met someone
Flasks shattered on the white cloth
Everybody moved on
Help, I'm still your friend & confidant 
Still sitting in a corner I haunt
Cross-legged in the dim light
They say, "What a sad sight"
I, I stayed there

Dust collected on my pinned-up hair
I'm sure that you got a *LIFE* out there
Kids and Christmas, but I'm not there
'Cause I'm right where

I cause no harm, mind my business
If our love died young, I can't bear witness
And it's been so long
But if you ever think you got it wrong
I'm right where you left me

You let me know, oh, you let me know 
You left me voice, but to stay here forever 
You chose me 
You chose me, whoa 🤯, oh you let me go 
You left me my choice ….
