Lyrics

Don’t hear me, don’t see me, don’t know where I am.
I’m thin, I’m a whisper, I’m weak as a lie.
But I’m climbing my fear like a ladder
and I’m leaving
I’m leaving, I’m leaving, I’m leaving you.

I’m out in my slippers, no time for my shoes
It’s damp and it’s cold and I’m shivering
I stick to the shadows, I peek in the window
Your face is a darkness that glows in the night
And I’m not safe.

Don’t hear me, I’m a rustle, I’m wind in the yard.
I’m a leaf on an updraft, I’m breathing the sky.
I’m staking my safety, I’m stealing my life.
I’m leaving.
I’m leaving, I’m leaving, I’m leaving you.

Your bottle’s half empty, it’s no friend of mine
But tonight I pray it can buy me some time
To call up the number that’s burned in my brain
Answer me, answer me, answer me
‘Cause I’m not safe
I’m not safe
I’m leaving
I’m leaving, I’m leaving, I’m leaving you.

Maybe someday you’ll find me,
And maybe you’ll cry and say that your sorry
And promise to try.
But whatever it is that you’re feeling for me..
Don’t call it love.
Don’t call it love.
