In the cracks of this city's skin
Will I find my home where I fit in
A world of strangers that somehow found
A place to hide but they're never around
Lost in the labyrinth of my mind
A key to unlock another heart to grind
Another door that I've left behind
Where is this place I cannot find
A nomad in this concrete jungle sea
Many faces pass how do they see me
I wander dead alleys how do they grow
Echoes of myself how do they know
Lost in the labyrinth of my mind
A key to unlock another heart to grind
Another door that I've left behind
Where is this place I cannot find
In the silence, do they hear my voice
Whispers of a dream echoes of a distant choice
To break the mould to shatter this glass
To find a reflection that's not just a mask
Lost in the labyrinth of my mind
A key to unlock another heart that I'll grind
Another door that I'll leave behind
Where is my place I cannot find
Lost in this labyrinth of my mind
A key to unlock another heart can I find
Another door but is it mine
Is this my place or do I leave it behind

Description
The extended version of “Left Behind” pushes deeper into the song’s inner landscape, reinforcing the sense of repetition and unresolved searching at its core. By revisiting key lyrical ideas with subtle shifts, it extends the feeling of being caught in a loop — both emotionally and mentally — rather than moving toward a clear resolution.
For the listener, this creates a more immersive and reflective journey, allowing the atmosphere to settle and the themes of identity and belonging to resonate more fully. Instead of closure, the extension leaves space to linger in the question, amplifying the song’s tension between movement and stillness.
