A new song. It’s called ‘Leave’. I recorded and edited this demo on my mobile phone. Not because I think I’m clever, but because my laptop broke and my utility knife wasn’t up to the task.

Leave

You want to take me back, you want to take me back today
But I’ve been burned before, burned down that way
I won’t get burned again, burned again today

I found a way to let you go
You want to hear her name, but you should already know
Oh my love, it’s time to cry goodbye
Take one last look, that says ‘Lord knows we tried’

To leave this hell behind
Leave

So you come sneaking back with your poison and your fear
See the crosses on the wall say ‘You’re not welcome here’
But you’ve come to take me back, take me back today
You say the flames they miss me so, the one that got away
But no, not that hell again, I will not lose my way

Toward the end, we kissed like lepers
They say that sometimes love just dies, but I think we knew better
Oh my love, if we could only touch again, the wounds that we could mend
But that’s a soul I cannot spend

So leave this hell behind
Leave
Leave
Leave

That’s it, let me know what you think!

Best,

SJ
