Leave Me Alone lyrics

As I said, I have no more .mp3s, and this was just sent to me by surprise today from a friend with another demo disc who works at a record label (he gave me the other demo disc I have with the lyrics I already posted). Apparently he has the album\'s layout sample which includes the liner notes pamphlet. He e-mailed pages of lyrics to me.

LEAVE ME ALONE

Bitter cynics,
Caustic critics
Tell me I write twisted lyrics.
?He?s lost his way,? is what they say
The ?genius? of my past scribes fails to pay
For the expensive costs of this delay.

They say that this is just a mimic
of the success I used to free from limit
But I guess they just don?t see it
The way I do.
The way I do.

I?m getting tired of their attitudes
Their grating slamming of my tunes
They don?t even know half the truth
And yet they all seem to think they?re sleuths

Why can?t they just leave me alone?
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Why can?t they just leave me alone?

Someday soon they all will see
Their belaboring just don?t stay
With me when I start writing again
Again
I take no heed of their need
To damage my creed
Destroy my reputation amongst the fans.
But deep inside, it don\'t really matter
Because very soon it\'ll turn for good
And I\'ll be smiling again
Yeah, I\'ll be smiling again

But yeah,
I?m getting tired of their attitudes
Their annoying little games they pull
The dodge-?em, miss-?em publicity charade.
So that they can take my photo today.

Yeah, why can?t they just leave me alone?
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Why can?t they just leave me alone?

I didn?t ask for this,
I didn?t ask for this.

Leave me alone.
