I've been misled
By words you've said
Though I've heard them a thousand times before
I've grown content, yet dying to live
Why did I expect any different?
Your guiding hand
Got me back on the ledge
You pulled me up from the wreckage
I took a chance, I let you in
Only to be left stranded
You shine your light then turn away
I watched you dissipate
And throw it away, throw it away
(I hope you're happy now)
I know you're scared to fall
Afraid to lose it all
I must let you go
(To regain control)
I know you're scared to fall
Afraid to lose it all
I hope you never know
(The art of letting go)
I'm stronger than this
Our climb to the end
Only found you longing to begin
You became distant
What I wouldn't give
I would have given you everything
Your sleight of hand pushed me over the edge
You left my heart in ruins
I took a chance, no not again
How could you be so reckless?
You shine your light then turn my way
Only it was too late
I throw you away, throw you away
I hope you're happy now
On your own
(You deserve)
To be all alone
(Right where you belong)
I must let you go
(I must let you go)
To regain control
(To regain control)
I'm letting you go
I must let you go
(Regain control)
I know you're scared to fall
Afraid to lose it all
I must let you go
(To regain control)
I know you're scared to fall
Afraid to lose it all
I hope you never know
(The art of letting go)
