Leave Me Alone

I know how to wake up
And not brush my hair
Not have to cover up
Just to walk down the stairs

It doesn't matter what I wear
To water the plants
Or stare vacantly
Into an empty Frigidaire

I know how to do life on my own
Been doing it since before I was grown
So I wish you would give me reason to hope
Please
Leave me alone

I'm pretty good now
At arranging the pillows around
My body at night

It staves the need for feeling a body close
It's not what I imagined
But it's what I chose

I need to do life on my own
It's the only way that I've ever known
So I wish you wouldn't give me reason to hope
Please
Leave me alone

Another day down
How many more to go?
Was I born the same unblemished zero
As those lucky love story heroes?
How would I ever even know?

I can do life on my own
It's the only way that I've ever known
And I wish you wouldn't give me reason to hope
Please
Leave me alone
Please
Leave me alone.
