This Is Letting Go

Lyrics

Once upon a time I could take anything, anything
 Always stepped in time, regardless of the beat
 I moved my feet, I carried weight
 What I could not do I faked
 I dug seeking treasure
 Just to wake up in an early grave
 So I stopped right there and said
 Go on alone
 'Cause I won't follow
 But this isn't giving up
 No, this is letting go
 Out with the old
 Dreams I've borrowed
 The path I carve from here on out will be my own
 The path will be my own
 ♪
 This is the part where the needle skips
 And the chorus plays like a sink that drips
 A syllable repeating, like a warning we aren't heeding
 Until all of a sudden we noticed it
 When the wheels brace and the tires grip
 A map we've been misreading
 A defeat we're not conceding
 Until now
 There must be some other way out
 Go on alone, because I won't follow
 But this isn't giving up no this is letting go
 Out with the old dreams I've borrowed
 The path I carve from here on out will be my own
 A path to take me home
 ♪
 The wind died
 The whole world ceased to move
 Now so quiet
 Her beating heart became a boom
 We locked eyes
 For just a moment or two
 She asked why
 I said
 "I don't know why, I just know"
 The wind died
 The whole world ceased to move
 Now so quiet
 Her beating heart became a boom
 We locked eyes
 For just a moment or two
 She asked why
 I said
 "I don't know why, I just know, I just know"
 Go on alone, 'cause I won't follow
 This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
 I made most of all this sorrow
 I tried to brave this discontent, but now I'm through
 I'm letting go of you
 This is letting go
 This is letting go
 This is letting go
 Once upon a time I could take anything, anything
