this is like the story of being in a group of your own friends but you can't help but feel so distant around them cause you aren't that close to some of them and it makes you feel like you're missing out a lot hence always being left behind.
(alright, let's lyrically go) [Spoken Intro] Alright, let's go [Verse 1] I'm clinging onto you so tight, I know it hurts just a little You say, "We will be alright", but I have my doubts But it's better to be holding you while you pass through Than not holding you at all An elephant is in the room Don't look, and don't try to feed it You always want me on your terms You can't have your cake and eat it [Chorus] I don't want you to go without me But when you do won't you put yourself in my shoes? 'Cause I know this feeling I'm so tired of being left behind [Post-Chorus] Left behind Left behind Everytime [Verse 2] Awake, in bed, in my own head, one day rolls into another It looks like you've been having fun, at least that's what I told my mother Maybe it's better to not have someone at all Then no one else can let you down when they forget to call I keep having this weird dream where you're about to go to war And I'm just left there in the kitchen, staring at the door I think I'm done with this 'Cause if you've got no one at least you've got no one to miss [Pre-Chorus] Is it better to be holdin' you while you pass through Or not holdin' you at all? [Chorus] I don't want you to go without me But when you do won't you put yourself in my shoes? Because I know this feeling, I'm so tired of dreamin' That you're not leavin' Oh, I'm so tired of being left behind [Post-Chorus] Left behind Left behind Everytime Left behind
Orla,everytime you make new song it is better than previous,l‘m big fan!You are becoming better and better and only better!With every new song you make me happier ❤️Too many greetings 👋
Omfg 2:04 - 2:41 is, not even remotely exaggerating, one of the best segments of a song I've heard in my life! This whole song is crushing and beautiful too and breaks me in the best way.
Your music fuels my soul. It’s gotten me through so much and continues to do so. I love every single one you release and they all resonate within me in some way. I can tell how passionate your re about your art just by listening to it. Magnificent.
Love this album was listening to it the car yesterday so many good songs this one really hits home for so many people Orla has an incredible knack of writing about what we all sometimes feel
I'm laying down in bed listening to this song crying my eyes out... like full blown tears/boogies just dripping! Crazy part is I truly have no idea whyyyy Orla, you're a gem.
As someone who's been disowned by family due to leaving the religious group my family and friends were in...This hit hard. That's how sometimes I feel about my partner, friends and his family.
I liked the song when I first heard it but now that I've paid more attention to the lyrics it made me cry, I know I won't be left behind by that person but this feeling is so real

I've already cried at this 7 times and that's excluding all the times I've cried to the demo version
There's not a song on this album I don't adore, and every video is stunning
going through it rn, and I must say, I 100% AGREE.
Listening at this at midnight with the lights off really felt overwhelming
“If you’ve got no one at least you’ve got no one to miss” My heart-
Orla’s lyric videos manage to be the both simple and extremely complex at the same time
(alright, let's lyrically go)
[Spoken Intro]
Alright, let's go
[Verse 1]
I'm clinging onto you so tight, I know it hurts just a little
You say, "We will be alright", but I have my doubts
But it's better to be holding you while you pass through
Than not holding you at all
An elephant is in the room
Don't look, and don't try to feed it
You always want me on your terms
You can't have your cake and eat it
[Chorus]
I don't want you to go without me
But when you do won't you put yourself in my shoes?
'Cause I know this feeling
I'm so tired of being left behind
[Post-Chorus]
Left behind
Left behind
Everytime
[Verse 2]
Awake, in bed, in my own head, one day rolls into another
It looks like you've been having fun, at least that's what I told my mother
Maybe it's better to not have someone at all
Then no one else can let you down when they forget to call
I keep having this weird dream where you're about to go to war
And I'm just left there in the kitchen, staring at the door
I think I'm done with this
'Cause if you've got no one at least you've got no one to miss
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it better to be holdin' you while you pass through
Or not holdin' you at all?
[Chorus]
I don't want you to go without me
But when you do won't you put yourself in my shoes?
Because I know this feeling, I'm so tired of dreamin'
That you're not leavin'
Oh, I'm so tired of being left behind
[Post-Chorus]
Left behind
Left behind
Everytime
Left behind
This one is just so saddd, I think I realize I've been the person she's singing about in some relationships, which I am not proud of
"cause if you've got noone atleast you've got noone to miss" IM NOT CRYING U R

"it's better to be holding you while you pass through than not holding you at all" is possibly the best lyric i've ever damn heard
This song makes me sad but I can relate so much to it
this really speaks to one of my worst fears in life: being left behind. thank you for the beautiful lyrics, orla
