When we take a closer look to the meaning, the Who's Leaving Here delivers an excruciating cry against women treated badly in a town while literally inviting males to reform their ways or be left with just the men. The idea of women departing by train or plane is a metaphor the song employs to make the situation of their leaving more urgent and inevitable if nothing changes. Leaving Here lyrics predominantly stress heartbreak, social commentary, angst, anger, and love. Thus, the song at the same time puts an emphasis on the women’s abuse, the need for change, and the consequent exodus and loss of women. The lyrics portray the themes of women’s abuse and eventual departure from the town as a result of bad treatment. The use of language is soft and there are no strong profanities, violent scenes, nudity, or drugs being referred to. However, the dominant theme of abuse and the emotional toll on the participants do suggest that it would be better if young audiences were under parental guidance.
