why does it feel so bad
to be left alone
why do i think im bigger than life
and think my heart is stone
tell me, why do i deserve
a guiding spirit like you
tell me again and again
how there's nothing i can do
(chorus)
leave me be, i'll rot in silence
leave me be, i'll take the blame
leave me passed out on my carpeted floor
the rage inside you can take aim
leave me be, i'll find my purpose
leave me be, i'll take control
leave me bleeding and struggling for air
then maybe you can make me whole
how did we come to this point
what all did i miss
how did i shut out so much
and never even reminisce
i just so happened to be fading
as you were getting stronger by the day
you say it's the intentions of the universe
and i could never see it that way
(chorus)
