Trigger Warning:Due to the allegations of Jim Carrey being an abuser, seeing him acting as a stalker in the film could be a bit much.<br /><br />Jerry Cantrell talked about the song to Guitar School magazine in August 1996:<br /><br />"I met with the director, Ben Stiller, at a video shoot in Los Angeles, and he asked me if I wanted to do something. I already had some material I had worked on prior to doing the Alice in Chains record, and when Ben heard it he said, 'That's great.' After that I went back and he listened to it, I realized that the lyrics kind of fit the vibe of the movie, which I hadn't planned on when I wrote them. The whole thing was just a good opportunity for me to do something else. We're not on tour right now, so why not?"<br /><br />Cantrell's "#Leave Me Alone" served as the soundtrack's promotional vehicle and was released as a single, peaking at No. 14 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. It had a music video that featured various footage from Cable Guy in a dark manner typical of Cantrell's style. It also had Jim Carrey's haunting face reaching out of a television screen observing Cantrell.<br /><br />[Verse 1:]<br />Blame me<br />Save a prayer<br />For those who haunt you<br />There now<br />I don't mind if you still love me<br /><br />[Chorus:]<br />Don't come over<br />Hear what I say<br />Don't come over<br />Hear what I say<br /><br />Don't come over<br />Hear what I say<br />Just leave me alone<br />Leave me alone<br /><br />[Verse 2:]<br />Shame me<br />Hide your heart<br />From those who haunt you<br />Way down<br />Would you care if I still need her?<br /><br />[Repeat Chorus:]<br /><br />[Bridge:]<br />Save me<br />Taken far<br />From those who flaunt you<br />Calm down<br />Drag your heart and you behind her<br /><br />[Repeat Chorus:]
