If Only You Could Give It Up
Let it go, let it go
Said the blind man to the bird
Let it die, let it die
And not give another word
I cannot feed you lies anymore
You have chosen me to simply ignore
The closing of the rotting door
Has an underlying theme that means so much more
You only want me to tell you
What you want to hear
Now I no longer have your permission
To whisper in your ear
I wanted to help, I honestly did
Then something came up
Emotions, with which I hid
Said the blind man to the bird
Let it die, let it die
And not give another word
I cannot feed you lies anymore
You have chosen me to simply ignore
The closing of the rotting door
Has an underlying theme that means so much more
You only want me to tell you
What you want to hear
Now I no longer have your permission
To whisper in your ear
I wanted to help, I honestly did
Then something came up
Emotions, with which I hid
