Leave the Scene Behind

[Verse 1]
She wrote my name, in her diary and today again
And now I know how it feels to exist behind the scenes
I know how it feels to kiss into the dreams
Of a girl who likes to keep it fresh and new
Behind closed doors, on checkered floors
Down mahogany halls

[Pre-Chorus]
This is what she said to me
This is what she said to me

[Chorus]
If you want to be with me
You've gotta leave that scene behind
And if you want to be free
You've gotta push your friends aside

[Verse 2]
In the modern school of urban fantasy
Who's best writers include her and me
We get down on our knees and pray to thee
Leather-bound black diary
She said David you'll always be a baby brother
And you'll always be your mother's son
And you'll always be somebody's favourite pupil
But you will never be the man that I want

[Pre-Chorus]
This is what she said to me
This is what she said to me

[Chorus]
If you want to be with me
You've gotta leave that scene behind
And if you want to be free
You've gotta push your friends aside
You've gotta push, push, push your friends aside
Leave that scene behind
Push, push, push your friends aside
Leave that scene behind
