Leave Out All the Rest Lyrics

[Verse One]
I dreamed I was missing / you were so scared
But no-one would listen / cause no-one else cared
After my dreaming / I woke with this fear
What am I leaving / when I'm done here?

[Chorus]
So, if you're asking me, I want you to know
When my time comes / forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some / reasons to be missed
Don't resent me / and, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory / leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

[Verse Two]
Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating / I've shared what I've made
I'm strong on the surface / not all the way through
I've never been perfect / but neither have you

[Chorus]
So, if you're asking me, I want you to know
When my time comes / forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some / reasons to be missed
Don't resent me / and, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory / leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

[Bridge]
Forgetting / all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending / someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

[Chorus]
So, if you're asking me, I want you to know
When my time comes / forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some / reasons to be missed
Don't resent me / and, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory / leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

[Bridge]
Forgetting / all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending / someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are
