What you've managed is to cheapen everything I've done
And don't pretend to know what I've been through, son
And these days grievances come through my open door
Guess that's what friends are for
I guess that's what friends are for

Can you not leave me alone?
Can you not leave me alone
Can you not leave me alone

All I ever wanted was to stay at home
Resting in a dirty bed on brittle bones
But lately I've been feeling like that can't come true
In the company of you, in the company of you

Can you not leave me alone?
Can you not leave me alone
Can you not leave me alone

I was once a careless lover
Now I live most under cover
Hateful, yes, but always somber
We might not be here for much longer
We might not be here for much longer
