When I Leave Here
[Verse]
You were always going
Both nowhere and too far
Living it up in some terminal bar
Your kimono akimbo
Your tiara too tight
Goodnight, sweet princess
Sayonara, alright
[Chorus]
When I leave here
You will remember
That I've been here
You're gonna know I'm gone
[Verse]
I ask you for a straight answer
You twist in your best question mark
You say you can't push a river
I can sure as shit disembark
You go on, get just as lit up as the liquor allow
One shadow you can't get rid of
Oh, I'll occur to you now
[Chorus]
When I leave here
You will remember
That I've been here
You're gonna know I'm gone
[Verse]
I give you my love
You put it in a drawer
I said, I give you my love
The fuck you think it's for?
You bet it'll hurt
But not as long as it should
For better or worse, I am gone for good
[Chorus]
When I leave here
Oh, how the wind will moan
When it hits home, I'm gone
