Leave

[Verse 1]

Nothing could bring me closer

Nothing could bring me near

Where is the road I follow

To leave it? Leave

It's under, under, under my feet

The sea spread out there before me

Where do I go when the land touches sea?

There is my trust in what I believe

[Chorus]

That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

That's what keeps me down

So leave it, leave it

Leave it all behind

[Verse 2]

Shift into dream

Nothing could bring me further from my old friend time

This shift into dream, it's charging the scene

I know where I marked the signs

I suffer dreams of a world gone mad

I like it like that, and I know it

Oh, I know it well, ugly and sweet

I temper madness with an even extreme

That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

That's what keeps me down

I say that I'm a bantam lightweight

I say that I'm a phantom airplane that never left the ground

[Chorus]

That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

That's what keeps me down

Oh, leave, leave it

Leave it all behind

[Verse 3]

Lift me, lift me

Now I dream a dream

I lost myself, I lost self

Are they calling me?

I lost myself in sorrow

I lost myself in pain

I lost myself in gravity

Memory, leave, leave, leave

[Chorus]

That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

That's what keeps me down

So leave it, leave it

Leave it all behind

That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

That's what keeps me down

So leave it, leave it

Leave it all behind

[Verse 4]

I lift my hands, my eyes are still

I walk into the sea

I shed myself, a different place

Then leave it

I've longed for this to take me

I've longed for my release

I've waited for the calling

To leave, leave

[Outro]

Leave, leave

Leave, leave

I'm leaving, leaving
