“Leave It” serves as the fifth track on The Long and Short of It. Above the pattern, layering piano and guitar, Jonson pokes holes in himself — his “cognitive dissonance,” being “too jaded” to see what’s right in front of him – the notions blurring back into that haze on an outro of sublime ambient...
[Verse 1]
I don't understand what you're saying
It doesn't make no sense to me
So do your investigation
And convict me in the processing
You put me in this position
And I've already abandoned it, yeah
Must be my cognitive dissonance
[Chorus]
So is it true, baby? I don't believe it
You're looking for something new, baby
You don't need it
And I must be too jaded to see it
If I'm still talking to you, baby
I should leave it, I should just leave it
[Verse 2]
Can't recall when I started falling
I don't know if I'll land
But you just falling with me
Had me spinning like a ceiling fan
As we continue gaining distance
The sky begins to convolute
Only for me to realize
I've been falling without a parachute
[Chorus]
So is it true, baby? I don't believe it
You're looking for something new, baby
You don't need it
And I must be too jaded (Ah) to see it
If I'm still talking to you, baby
I should just leave it, I should just leave it, I should just leave it
So is it true, baby? I don't believe it (I don't believe it)
You're looking for something new, baby
Oh, you don't need it
And I must be too jaded (Ah) to see it
If I'm still talking to you
[Outro]
(Ah)
