Letting  Go

Hanging on for too long
Rescue far from sight
How long can I hang on?
It's time I let go

Letting go
I'm letting go
There's no other choice for me
I'm tired of being where I am
But I wish it wasn't so

A lifetime of vexing
Living on the edge
Letting go the only option
And I'm on the verge

Insanity's no stranger to me
Yes I'm use to it
I conformed
But is that why the change didn't come?
What does it matter
In no time I'll be gone

Letting go
I'm letting go
There's no other choice for me
I'm tired of being where I am
But I wish it wasn't so

Nightmares
Scarecrow
Sleepless eyes
Cock crows
Sunrise to sunset
The same ups and downs
Bringing about this
Terrible mindset

Smile stays on like a uniform
Best reason;camouflage
Self prison
Spiritual treason
Death wish
I'm at large

I see the grin on my face
Staring at the mirror
My heart knows I'm in a maze
My eyes reveal the terror
Everyday's a curse
It's a wait for the worst
So what's the point in hanging on?

Letting go
I'm letting go
There's no other choice for me
I'm tired of being where I am
But I wish it wasn't so


Now its beyond my control
Something in me
desperately needs to go
My head's spinning
Thoughts bombard my brain cells
As I combat my own self
Wondering how I made my own hell

Surprising revelations
Surprisingly unfolding
I'm letting everything go
Even those I was dearly upholding

In times of difficulties
Then you'll know your friends
I never had one
And I'm just knowing that at the end

With everything gone
Fed up with living a lie
I can't hold on any longer
No matter how I try

Letting go
I'm letting go
There's no other choice for me
I'm tired of being where I am
But I wish it wasn't so
