Leave me alone
I don't want your help
I'm pushing you away
Realize that now
I never wanted anyone else
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
This isn't what you wanted
But I need more than you
I'm weighed down by your wishes
So stop pulling me close
And let me break away
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
That I never wanted you
And everything you mean
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
Me
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
I'm enough for me
So let me be …
I don't want your help
I'm pushing you away
Realize that now
I never wanted anyone else
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
This isn't what you wanted
But I need more than you
I'm weighed down by your wishes
So stop pulling me close
And let me break away
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
That I never wanted you
And everything you mean
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
Me
Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you
I'm enough for me
So let me be …
