Visiting x The Boy I Left Behind (Mashup)

When your inner turmoil comes together. [singer A] How do you see it? How do you feel? How do you know? What’s really real? I hear the same words See the same scene But my perception… Not the same thing [melodic interlude] [singer B] Hello. Excuse me. Are you me? Did we make the things we planned? Did we get strong? Why do I still hear your voice... asking where the years have gone? [singer A] I start to think Maybe I’m crazy I don’t belong here And I know it’s me I never fit in I never do blend I’m always watching The world I am in [singer B] Yeah... that’s us, little chap, life took a swipe at the spine and the pride in the stance, same heart under shirts and the work and the worth, same spark under stacks of plans. Did well by the script they sell blokes, good wage, nice place, clean drive on the back of a chance, but no one says you can tick every box on the board and still feel out of balance. [transition] [singer A] There’s a wall I can’t seem to climb That keeps me just far… Enough To be locked in my mind And I am so lonely Though everyone’s near So close to you But so far from here [singer B] Did you forget me? Nah... worse than forgot, little man, I knew you were there in the back of the mind, heard you in songs that stung too deep, in the rain on late-night drives, in truths hard to hide. Saw you in laughs that landed proper, in sharp warm moments that opened inside, I just kept saying later, later, later... while whole good years slipped by out of sight! [instrumental] [singer A] I can’t understand it Is what I see real? Is what I feel happening? Don’t trust what I feel I am outside I’m just looking in I’m not really here, no… I’m just visitin’ [singer B] Are you happy? Sometimes. Sometimes it lands with the morning light, or a song, or the way someone says my name. Sometimes it turns up round family tables and reminds me not all of it came to pain. [singer A] I’m tired of trying I’m just not the same I’m really not from here I’m just lookin’ in I’m not really here, no… I’m just visitin’ [singer B] Not who we were... but maybe better. If you stay, we start right now. I know, little man... We were always here.
