Leave It Alone

[Verse 1]

All this time, I'd never let you go

And now the same chains that I kept you in

They're holding down my soul

I set you up, I gave you life, I dragged you out the fire

And now you knocked me down and you shut me out

And I can see it in your eyes

Somehow you got it in your head

That you could make it on your own

You were sheltered, loved and fed

But you just couldn't leave it alone

[Chorus]

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

[Verse 2]

Well, your heart was here

Resting on my lap

And I'd do it all again

But I'm never coming back

Well, I know I'm lying

Lying in the cold

Yeah, there's snow on the ground and if I know myself

I'll be leaving down the road

I've been all around the world

But I got nowhere to go

I gave into this lonely life

And you can't change me now, so leave it alone

[Chorus]

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

Leave it alone, leave it alone

[Verse 3]

The ghosts are on the green

Each and every night

Oh, the distant light

That's the hardest part to take

That's the heart of all my pain

Lying in the cold

Oh, the distant light

In a hue we can't describe, still we know

[Verse 4]

Could it all be over now

We've seen it all the while

There's no dimension to the clouds

The moon and world around

That's the heart of all my pain

'Cause I don't wanna go

Oh, the distant light

In a hue we can’t describe, still we know
