Hanging [The Falling Wallendas featuring Todd Sucherman]


Hanging
Written by Allen Keller and Scott Bennett

I have faith in you, you're not coming back
You never let me down when it comes to that
As the floorboard creaks
The hollows echo
And the shutter slam
I'm left by myself to define who I am

And I'm left hanging here for you
Left hanging here for you
Left hanging
Left hanging
I'm hanging here
Searching for
Words to say
As you walk out the door

My cup filled with clouds of Half and Half
Patsy Cline sang her epitaph
Surrounded by tobacco silhouettes
As the ashes piled up like regrets

I'm hanging here for you
Left hanging here for you
Left hanging
Left hanging
I'm hanging here
Searching for
Words to say
As you walk out the door

Oh, left hanging here for you
Ooh, left hanging here for you
Oh, left hanging here for you
Oh, left hanging here for you
Oh, left hanging here for you
Ooh

Left hanging here
Left hanging here
Left hanging here
Left hanging here

Interpretation

When you broke up with me, you just left me hanging there, speechless.  It's like I was hanged on a gallows.  Now I'm just drinking coffee, listening Pasty Cline, and smoking cigarettes waiting and hoping you will come back.
