Let Me Go

[Verse 1]
We’re not on the rocks
We’re on the fucking edge of a cliff
And I’m not gonna lie, sometimes when we talk
It’s like trying to read hieroglyphs
I’m tired of screaming and crying
Caught in the throes of this storm
The lines on your face look worn
How did we get so torn?
“Are you happy?” you ask
And I know what you’re asking is if we should call it quits
I don’t have the answers at all
And all I know what to say in response is
I don’t want to give up on this

[Chorus]
But don’t you let me go
Don’t you let me go

[Verse 2]
I got drunk again, didn’t I?
Fuck, you’re mad and I don’t know why
What did I say or do wrong this time?
Was I so out of the line you can’t leave it behind?
No, you’re right I’m sorry, fuck, can we start over?
Do it again when I’m sober? Take it slower?
Here, baby come closer
No, don’t walk away, stay, I won’t get angry again, hey
I don’t deserve to be treated this way
A couple of drinks after a shit day is normal
Yeah I got sloppy, who cares
Maybe I’d drink less if you were there, it’s not fair
Even when you’re here you’re somewhere else
I’m just looking for help
Cause even with you I feel like I’m all by myself

[Chorus]
But don’t you let me go
Don’t you let me go
Cause I’m not ready to lose what we have baby at all, oh
Don’t you let me go

[Verse 3]
Changed your mind on a dime
Thought you said you would actually try
Gave up and ran off without a goodbye
Merry Christmas, have a nice life
No, we can’t ever be friends
I thought you were my fucking person
Don’t tell me how much it hurts you to break me
This whole time you’ve been faking
Said when we got real you won’t leave
You’d stand by me, didn’t wanna be
A coward like your dad
But you should envy your old man
He fears the world cause he loves what he has
You’re so afraid of love it doesn’t stand a chance

[Chorus]
But don’t you let me go
Don’t you let me go
Cause I’m not ready to lose what we have baby at all, oh
Don’t you let me go
