He was alone, outside
On the night his glory died, she just sat and cried
None of the rain that he’d longed for from her face
That’s the penance he could pay for his crime

So he took all he had and he ran
And he ran for his life, left his wife
And how he longed to be a child of the light
And for once in his life, he runs

Leave, leave me alone with my voices
And leave, leave me alone to my choices
For I will be ruled by my vices

So take your leave from the words
As they drip from the mouth of a child, soft and low
Run away from the sins of your rage
And the way you were made to take

Leave, leave me alone with my voices
And leave, leave me alone to my choices
'Cause I will be ruled by my vices

Oh, leave, leave me alone with my voices
And leave, leave me alone to my choices
'Cause I will be ruled by my vices

Oh, leave, leave me alone with my voices
And leave, leave me alone to my choices
'Cause I will be ruled by my vices
