Let Me Go

Can’t you see that I’m smothered?

Can’t you see that I need to be alone?

Thought I told you it clearly

That I can’t breathe,

With you sitting on my heart.

You say you won’t be happy,

Until I’m back again.

 

And you need to realize,

That I don’t need you,

And I’m sorry that I said that I did,

Cause I thought I did,

 

But I don’t

And I won’t,

And I don’t mean to push you out the door,

But I do,

And I will,

If I have to.

And I have to.

So you have to let me go.

 

Can’t you see that I’m shaking?

Can’t you see that I want to leave your  grasp?

Thought you meant something different,

Thought you knew that I wasn’t forever,

And you were sitting on my heart.

 

And you need to realize,

That I don’t need you,

And I’m sorry that I said that I did,

Cause I thought I did,

 

But I don’t

And I won’t,

And I don’t mean to push you out the door,

But I do,

And I will,

If I have to.

And I have to.

So you have to let me go.

 

I won’t lie, and say that I’ll return,

Cause I never wanted to be here anyway.

I never wanted this,

I let you convince me,

I let you convince me,

But I don’t need you,

Like you told me I did.

 

And you need to realize,

That I don’t need you,

And I’m sorry that I said that I did,

Cause I thought I did,

 

Cause I don’t

And I won’t,

And I don’t mean to push you out the door,

But I do,

And I will,

If I have to.

And I have to.

So you have to let me go.
