Leave It Alone

[Verse 1:]
Don't nobody tell me
That God don't have a sense of humor
'Cause now that I want to live
Well, everybody around me is dying
Now that I finally wanna live
The ones I love are dyin'
Becoming friends with a noose that I made
And I keep tryin' to untie it
Make it into something useful
Or maybe hang it through a window pane
Turn it into a fire escape

[Chorus:]
It tastes so bitter on my tongue
The truth's a killer
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone

[Verse 2:]
You don't remember my name somedays
Or that we're related
It triggers my worry
Who else am I gonna lose before I am ready?
And who's gonna lose me?

[Chorus:]
It tastes so bitter on my tongue
The truth's a killer
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it a-

[Verse 3:]
If you know love
You best prepare to grieve
Let it enter your open heart and
Then prepare to let it leave
