call it a dare

"Leave home
Leave familiar
Leave the course you're on because you never wanted to be here in the first place.
Leave him
Leave her
Leave because they don't appreciate your love, now do they really?

Leave working for someone else's dream
Leave the shitty scene
Leave your comfortable couch
Leave convention
Respectability
Responsibility
Obligation.

Leave the guilt
sorrow
abuse
violence
rape
Leave it in the past because fuck them for attempting to ruin your future.
Leave apprehension
Leave intimidation
Leave "what's right", because who are they to tell you anyway.

Leave Glasgow
Leave New York
Leave Miami
Leave Chicago
a plane
Bus
Train
School application
Job application

Leave soul killing jobs
Leave negative people
Leave dead relationships

You are wasting your time
Your life
Your talent
Your love
Your opportunity

And with each passing day you slowly lose your shine
your glow
your spark
your fight
your heart.

You talk about it all the time.
Just fucking leave...

And find yourself."
