Lyrics
Leave Me To Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Complications, more so i can say
Promises and deadlines make it hard to stay away.
All these strings are attaching to me,
And i can't find the scissors.
Yeah
All i tell them "i'm back" and i'm not.
I can't remember where i was, i forgot.
Knitting it all, these holes that i need,
To crawl through a brick wall,
Is hard to say the least.
Where's that thought, that thought uncomplicated things?
Where's that peace of mind, that peace that made it easy?
Where's that simple day, that simply made it nice to be in.
Where did it go? where did it go? where did it go?
Yeah.
I got you a murky light, tell me what can you see?
A huge cloud of shit, hanging over me.
Can you blow it all somewhere else?
It's making it hell to distinguish myself.
Tired of the tyrants who only think they're all business.
Pissed with their patience, they constantly agree.
"yes sir, yes sir, three hundred bags full."
It's easier to say yes than to say no to a fool.
Where's that thought, that thought uncomplicated things?
Where's that peace of mind, that peace that made it easy?
Where's that simple day, that simply made it nice to be in.
Where did it go? where did it go? where did it go?
Yeah.
Cover me in cyanide
Cover me in ink
Cover me in formaldehyde
And leave me here to think.
Cover me in carpet
Cover me in tile.
Cover me and evict me and put me in a file.
Strip me bare, don't let me breathe.
Strip me to my skin.
Strip me so you can watch me clean off,
All these things i've been.
Strip me naked of these walls
Strip me of all my rules
Strip me boy and see how small i am without you.
Inseminate the good now
Inseminate the pure
Inseminate all the shit that i've forgotten how to whore.
Inseminate the natural
Inseminate the dirt
Inseminate the ineffectual
And leave me here to love.
Leave me here to love
Where's that thought, that thought uncomplicated things?
Where's that peace of mind, that peace that made it easy?
Where's that simple day, that simply made it nice to be in.
Where did it go? where did it go? where did it go?
Yeah.
Leave me here to love
