Lyrics Daughtry – Traffic Light

The traffic light
Waits for you to tell me the tale of a shattered life, tonight
And I just passed by when you have had the chance to fight
Or would you spend your last days alone

So you’re telling me, this is how you’re going down
You thought they never really wanted you around
Well, you are way off track to think like that
‘Cause now you’ve taken back
Everything that you ever said
‘Bout how I’d never want to see you again
Well, this is what I—what I left behind

What I left behind, what I left behind

You need a change
In a minute of my time did I get your name?
Well, you say, that I haven’t been asked that in years
Now I thank the traffic light that stood in the way
So that I can hear what you had to say
I’m half way through your story
Can’t help thinking that you’re just like me

This is how I’m going down
I thought they never really wanted me around
Well, I was way off track to think like that
‘Cause now I’m taking back
Everything that I ever said
‘Bout how they’d never want to see me again
Well, this is what I—what I left behind

Forgetting about ourselves

Yeah, this is how you’re going down
You thought they never really wanted you around
Well, you were way off track to think like that
‘Cause now you’ve taken back
Everything that you ever said
‘Bout how they never want to see you again
Well, this is what I—what I left behind

This is how you’re going down
This is what I—what I left behind
