He's leaving, I know because I made him, He touched places I don't go, Now he's gotta go, This time round, I don't cry, Is it a shell around my wounds? Is it peace I'd never known? I didn't cry, Why? Ah! He's leaving me, Not the tiny little child.

He's Leaving Me
He's leaving, I know because I made him, He touched places I don't go, Now he's gotta go, This time round, I don't cry, Is it a shell around my wounds? Is it peace I'd never known? I didn't cry, Why? Ah! He's leaving me, Not the tiny little child.
