Leave Me Alone Lyrics

This is probably my number 1 favourite song, ever. I still don't fully understand the song, but here's my interpretation ...

"I'm in a relationship and I feel that she doesn't get me, and this makes me feel lonely. But this is how all of my relationships have been, and it's how I see everyone's relationships.

I do love her, but at the same time hate her ... but I'm going to end it"

Even writing this I have had to have a dozen goes at it !

It never began due to your wishes. Just read my journal before you get another tongue lashing, you big handsome sissy. Goodnight.

I've come to the conclusion that your female alias must be a subconscious attempt to soothe yourself. Possibly your mothers voice in the back of your mind? Hmm. Haven't really taken the liberty to contemplate or psychoanalyze that part, or you, in general.
