where I let go

we built a life
then shot it in the legs
and silence lives where once was happiness
the anger of days past looks silly now
I wish there was a way back somehow
but I doubt…

I miss your skin
and everything you were
or could still be
if you accessed your own core

but you are stubborn, hurt, or feeling free
but all you are…
you’re faraway from me
I don’t exist

I wish I knew for sure
one day you will return
and we will meet again
and we’ll be happy again
the truth is I don’t know
and so I gotta go
this is where I let go
but you are in my soul
you are in my soul

we built a world
then we brought it down
pretending we’d be fine with or without

I wish you well
you are a precious soul
deep down I’ll hope we haven’t fucked it up after all

I wish I knew for sure
if one day will return
if we will meet again
will we be happy again?
the truth is we don’t know
and so we gotta go
this is where I let go
but you are in my soul
you are in my soul

you are in my soul
this is where I let go…
