Leave My Place

I ran a million miles

And heard a voice inside

I saw you as you faded

And all you left behind

Taking in the tide

I spread my arms out wide

I try to pull you closer

As I inhale the sky

You kept me down far too long

Now I see I was wrong

Leave me be, leave my place

I don't care where you go

Just as long as you know

You'll leave me be, leave my place

I can't shine like you

I know you want me to

Your tranquilizing eyes said

Can't we start anew?

I won't go insane

Refuse to feel this pain

I can't shine like you

I know you want me to

Your tranquilizing eyes said

Can't we start anew?

I won't go insane

Refuse to feel this pain

I'm giving up my search for

Someone else to blame

You kept me down far too long

Now I see I was wrong

Leave me be, leave my place

I don't care where you go

Just as long as you know

You'll leave me be, leave my place

Longing for the hand that used hold me

Longing for the land that I called home

Longing for the streets we used to wander

I wonder

Leave me be, leave my place

I don't care where you go

Just as long as you know

You'll leave me be, leave my place
