This Is Letting Go

Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.Always stepped in time, regardless of the beatI moved my feet, I carried weightWhen I could not do a thingAnd I'm done seeking treasureJust to wake up in an early graveSo I stopped right there and saidGo all alone, 'cause I won't follow.This isn't giving up, no this is letting goOut with the old dreams I've borrowedThe path I call from here on out will be my ownThe path will be my ownThis is the part where the needle skipsAnd the chorus plays like a sink that dripsA syllable repeating, like a warning we're not heedingUntil all is said and we noticed itWhen the wheels brace and the tires gripA map we've been misreadingA defeat we're not concedingUntil nowThere must be some other way outGo all alone, 'cause I won't followThis isn't giving up no this is letting goOut with the old dreams I've borrowedThe path I call from here on out will be my ownA path to take me home(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)The wind diedThe whole world ceased to moveNow so quietHer beating heart became a boomWe locked eyesFor just a moment or twoShe asked whyI said "I don't know why"I just knowThe wind diedThe whole world ceased to moveNow so quietHer beating heart became a boomWe locked eyesFor just a moment or twoShe asked whyI said "I don't know why"I just knowI just knowGo all alone, 'cause I won't followThis isn't giving up, no this is letting goI'll make the most of all this sorrowI tried to break these tears' contempt but now I'm throughI'm letting go of you.This is letting goThis is letting goOnce upon a time I could take anything, anything.
