Leave me alone.

Please, for the love of everything.

Leave me alone.

Don’t think I don’t want you to

Leave me alone.

Let me go.

The darkness is calling,

Please, I can’t breathe, please,

Hold me, don’t let me go, wait,

Keep me forever,

Keep me tethered,

Keep me here.

Don’t leave me alone,

I am so lost, please,

Don't leave me alone.

For the love of everything,

Don’t leave me alone.
