Let Me Leave

Wide awake in clothes I haven't changed
 For days and days as the sun creeps through the window on my face
 Just let it go
 You say I'm like a ghost
 My skin is white as paper as I haunt the halls of my home, oh-oh
 I scream like it would stop the ache
 Your colors start to show (show)
 I know what I have to do, but it kills me
 Rewriting all the songs
 I'd change your name, but I know you'll still take everything to heart
 Just let it go
 I wonder if we'll die with hope
 Or if we'll be counting the sins we carry deeply as we go
 I just wanted you to have a better life
 Not always shying away from your thoughts on the inside
 I, I could set you free
 I put you on a shelf, knowing that I'd be
 Too far to reach you from down in hell
 The sun slumps back as I burn your dreams
 To the best of my ability, so just let me leave
 I scream like it would stop the ache
 Your colors start to show (show)
 I know what I have to do, but it kills me
 Sleep, if anything, I'll dream
 It's only then I'll have you
 I know what I have to do, but it kills me
