A strange song about changing perspectives

Lyrics

Changeling – Capo 6 – DADGAD

Please leave me alone
It’s only this way I get to be me, no act, no hype
Just me and my neurosis here to guide me
Will I ever see the light

Or is it always destined to elude me at the last second
Like some predefined thing
Something I cannot effect in any way
I hate to think that’s true

But the longer I live, the harder I try
And the more true it seems to be
And the more I strive to find what’s missing
The further away it seems to flee
Please leave me alone

You sit here beside me, hold my hand
Let me know how you care
And I will always try to give you
All the love you can bear
It comes from a core deep inside me
A well too far to see
It’s a bottomless place, filled with kindness
No neurosis can reach

And the longer I live, the harder I’ll try
And the more true it may be
Don’t leave me alone
It’s only this way, I can truly be me
Don’t leave me alone, don’t leave me alone
