This song is about a girl Eddie Vedder knows. It works in tandem with the song "Why Go". This girl was living in a very opressive family. When she was caught smoking weed, they put her in a mental institution. Hence "Why Go". Leash is a reaction to how she was treated after she got out of the institution. She was forced to be home by 7 every night, and could not date. This song is Eddie calling to people like her parents to "drop the leash". GREAT song
