Leave [Alt. Version] lyrics

[Verse 1]

Nothing could be bring me closer

Nothing could be bring me near

Where is the road I follow?

To leave, leave

It's under, under, under my feet

The scene spread out there before me

Where do I go when the land touches the 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

To leave, believe it

Leave it all behind

[Verse 2]

Shifting the dream

Nothing could bring me further from my old friend time

Shifting the dream, it's charging the scene

I know where I marked the signs

I suffer the dreams of a world gone mad

I like it like that and I know it

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

[Verse 3]

Lift my hands, my eyes are still

I'll walk into the sea

Lift myself in a different place

Just leave it

I've longed for this to take me

I've longed for my release

I've waited for the calling

To leave

[Chorus]

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

That's what keeps me down

To leave, leave it

Leave it all behind

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

That's what keeps me down

To leave, leave it

Leave it all behind

[Outro]

Leavin', leave

Leave, leave

Leave, leave

Leave, leave

Leave
