-- LYRICS --

I leave this worldĀ 
With a glint in my eyeĀ 
I've untold all of my liesĀ 
And all the joyĀ 
I leave behindĀ 
I'll miss you tooĀ 
Love of mineĀ 
Ā 
Today no tombstone
No goodbyes
My soul is fullĀ 
Watch it flyĀ 
When I return
Prodigal sonĀ 
This wounded worldĀ 
Will be as oneĀ 
Ā 
Be as oneĀ 
Ā 
I leave this worldĀ 
A hopeful songĀ 
Without a tearĀ 
I will prolongĀ 
My bruises healedĀ 
My scars are gone
And every beatingĀ 
Made me strongĀ 
So please donā€™t cryĀ 
Donā€™t think it's wrongĀ 
My soul is pureĀ 
It sings alongĀ 
When I returnĀ 
A better meĀ 
You'll see that sorrow can set you free
Ā 
Set you freeĀ 
Set you freeĀ 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
Set you freeĀ 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
Ā 
I leave this world to you allĀ 
The constellations will never fallĀ 
And if youā€™re fearfulĀ 
Bare no mindĀ 
The sun will rise
Heed your call
Ā 
No open casket
No sullen wakeĀ 
Your will heart will mendĀ 
If you breakĀ 
So without greed
Without pride
Shout I'm aliveĀ 
I am alive
Ā 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
I am aliveĀ 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
I am alive
(Iā€™ll set you free)
I am aliveĀ 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
I am aliveĀ 
Ā 
(Iā€™ll set you free)
(Iā€™ll see you free)

The violin part is obviously a tribute to David Bowie, it covers his vocal notes on the final bridge of Under Pressure.

I think Brian has a very very beautiful soul, his music brought tears of happiness to me in some very dark and lonely times. 2 / 5 / 1980 All my love, James.

This song is the best and it's true. Beautiful redemption song. Even we can feel disappointed of this world, family, yourself, god... In the end we will find a way and we will be fine sn joined by the final journey. Amazing, rich, happy, hopeful song. Brian is so calm here. Placebo is the prodigal son of XXI century music, next to Bowie, the artists that changed my universe. Thanks for this precious album.

Placebo will never die. Even when your bodies give up, the majesty, beauty and power of your music will live on until mankind no longer exists.

I donā€™t know if Placebo read the comments, but ā€˜never let me goā€™ is a really meaningful, beautiful & a little bit sad album. Thereā€™s no black sheep. This song especially touched me. Thank you. āœŠ

I have been a long time placebo fan since I was a kid. About 11 or 12 years old. I just turned 30. Top five favorite bands, even have a tattoo and shit. I lost my father last week on Wednesday 3/16 at 2:56am. I also very much had a prodigal son type relationship with my father. I was strung out on drugs for years, ran away, suicide attempts, jail, prison, rehabs, the list goes on. I wronged him in the worst of ways and worried him sick for years. For the past four years I have been sober. I made amends to my father, we rebuilt our relationship. He not only forgave me, he never even let it cloud his view of me whatsoever. I was very close to him. He was so happy that I didnā€™t die before him. He was so proud of me and the man I have becomeā€¦ He was the wisest, kindest, most forgiving man I have ever known. I donā€™t know if itā€™s coincidence that this song came out the week after his death. But it literally sounds like my dad is talking to me. This song made me break down pretty hard, as you could imagine... Dad, I love you, thank you for never giving up on me. I will miss you forever. Nothing will ever be quite the same without you.

The back violins at one point remind me of Under Pressure kind of vibes. For sure one of the finest song Placebo ever made. That's pure art, a masterpiece.

Listening to this song for about the 20th time, I realized that this is exactly what I've been waiting for. I'm going to have this song played at my funeral, I've already put it in my will. Thank you Brian for such beautiful lyrics.

Placebo have been with me since a kid to adult - I struggle to find I connect or understand emotions, but placebo have always been there. Favourite band for over 20 years. Thank-you for everything x

I'm going through a difficult period. Interpreting this song, I understand that all my desires to go to another world, cuts on my hands, escapes from home and loss of the meaning of life are just part of the countless trials that I have to go through.God does not send us those trials that we are not able to pass.Dear reader, you will be fine too.
