Walking By by Something Corporate

Your grand dad left home for the circus
He was young just like me
With hope to explore
He married a girl in Virgina
She could sing the trapeze
They could sleep on the floor

Your mother was born in December
On the one sunny day that winter gave up
She had warm summer eyes
That flickered like fireflies
When she stared at the world

So why do you leave these stories unfinished?
My Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in her eyes
Why do you look when you've already found it?
What did you find that could leave you walking by?

She was raised in a New England village
Than she moved to LA with her firefly stare
You love sunset when it sparkled
You grew up and you sparkled but why don't you care?

So why do you leave these stories unfinished?
my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes
And why do you look when you've already found me?
What did you find that could leave you walking by?

These nights I get high just from breathing
When I lie here with you I'm sure that I'm real
Like that firework over the freeway
I could stay here all day but that's not how you feel

So why do you leave all these questions unanswered?
The circus awaits and you're already gone
My Cheshire cat doorstop with fear in her smile
What makes it so easy for you to be walking by?
And what did I do that you can't seem to want me?
Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes?
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me?
What makes it so easy for you to be walking by?
