Leave Me

Our entry into a compilation CD for the Acid Exchange International Music and Arts Guild double-CD. I wrote the music and cowrote the Lyric with Scott Graves, and sang the song. Other players are Jay P Lindsey, Dave Bell, and Steve of Asymetric Studios in the UK.

Here lies wisdom on the ground
Lost in your desire unbound
Where lies honor, wherewith grace
Vanished, lost without a trace

You’re free to lie and drift around
I’m left to hold this piece of ground
You’ll take the future, so I’m told
While my line fades with days of old

So leave me
Leave me alone
Leave me like a dying moan
Leave me now without a care
Let me go in my despair for you.

In your world there is no past
None came first and none will last
No one to say why or how
Stranded in the moment now

Such as you, since time began
Helpless, faithless, turned and ran
Headlong into time’s abyss
To darkness born, by shadows kissed

So shadows fall, so darkness grows
And down to endless night she goes
Here watchfires flicker in the wind
To light the way beyond the end

So leave me
Leave me alone
Leave me like a dying moan
Leave me now without a care
Let me go in my despair for you, for you,
In my despair for you
