Lyrics

Leave

Expressing the desire to leave.

Take everything away so I can grieve

Requesting the removal of everything to facilitate grieving.

Made peace with my denial, so naive, yeah

Acknowledging acceptance of denial with a sense of innocence.

I try to let you in but it's hard for me

Struggling to open up emotionally to someone.

Hard for me, yeah

Reiterating the difficulty in being emotionally vulnerable.

Leave

Repetition of the desire to leave.

You made me something I could never be

Attributing a transformation to someone but realizing it's unattainable.

Been chasing trauma with some gasoline, yeah

Trying to cope with past traumas using destructive methods.

I tried to let you in but it's hard for me

Continuing struggles to open up emotionally.

Hard for me, no

Reiterating the persistent difficulty in being vulnerable.

Etched into my heart I can't forget

An indelible mark on the heart that cannot be forgotten.

Did some things I'm starting to regret

Regret over past actions that are now haunting.

Burning holes into your silhouette

Intense emotional pain affecting the perception of a person.

I can't shake the feeling that I'm fucked up

Feeling deeply flawed and troubled.

Running out of luck, yeah

Sense of running out of luck and facing difficulties.

Glossy eyes like tints leaving nothing up above, yeah

Comparing eyes to tinted windows, hiding emotions.

Hop in the sky and forget it, yeah

Escaping from problems by flying high in the sky.

Leaving the ground like I rent it, yeah

Leaving the current situation abruptly.

But feeling no relief

Despite the escape, feeling no relief from troubles.

Take everything away so I can grieve

Repetition of the request to take everything away for grieving.

Made peace with my denial, so naive, yeah

Reiterating acceptance of denial with a sense of innocence.

I try to let you in but it's hard for me

Continued struggle to be emotionally open.

Hard for me, yeah

Repeating the difficulty in being emotionally vulnerable.

Leave

Repetition of the desire to leave.

You made me something I could never be

Acknowledging an unattainable transformation imposed by someone else.

Been chasing trauma with some gasoline, yeah

Engaging in destructive behaviors to cope with trauma.

I tried to let you in but it's hard for me

Continuing struggles to open up emotionally.

Hard for me, no

Reiterating the persistent difficulty in being vulnerable.

(I can't leave this state of mind

Expressing an inability to escape a troubled state of mind.

I can't leave this state of mind)

Repeating the sentiment of being trapped in a troubled state of mind.
