Leaving Again by Ren Stedman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I can’t say what I think
So I’ll say what I know
I’ve broken through all the windows, but here I am
I’m still trapped behind my front door
I tried to paint over cobwebs
I tried to sand down the sirens
I thought if I built a house in my head
Then my head might confuse it with silence
[Chorus]
But I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
[Verse 2]
All my systems are nervous
And all my actions are worthless
I’m constructing the person I wish I could be in my brain
One with meaning and more of a purpose
I fenced out my friends
I put walls up to make sure they’d never get in
I built home in myself so that nobody else could creep in
When I wanted to cancel the plans that I said I’d attend
That I said I'd attend
[Chorus]
So I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
[Bridge]
And I’ll kick up the curbs
And I know I deserve
What I get if it’s good, if it’s bad
If it’s love, if it burns or it hurts
But God knows it hurts
And God know it hurts
And I can’t find the cause or the catalyst that really started this
I’m only making things worse
[Chorus]
So I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
Well I can’t say what I think
So I’ll say what I know
I’ve broken through all the windows, but here I am
I’m still trapped behind my front door
I tried to paint over cobwebs
I tried to sand down the sirens
I thought if I built a house in my head
Then my head might confuse it with silence
[Chorus]
But I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
[Verse 2]
All my systems are nervous
And all my actions are worthless
I’m constructing the person I wish I could be in my brain
One with meaning and more of a purpose
I fenced out my friends
I put walls up to make sure they’d never get in
I built home in myself so that nobody else could creep in
When I wanted to cancel the plans that I said I’d attend
That I said I'd attend
[Chorus]
So I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
[Bridge]
And I’ll kick up the curbs
And I know I deserve
What I get if it’s good, if it’s bad
If it’s love, if it burns or it hurts
But God knows it hurts
And God know it hurts
And I can’t find the cause or the catalyst that really started this
I’m only making things worse
[Chorus]
So I’m leaving again
And I can’t tell you why
If I don’t know what the problem is, friend
Well, I can’t say what’s on my mind
