“Letting Go” is an exclusive bonus track taken from the Target Edition of Michele’s second studio album Places. The uplifting song allows her pristine voice to break into a bright-toned chorus backed by her soft background vocals over lyrics about finding peace (“find the good in letting go.”)
[Verse 1]
Chasing after all of the words you swallow
Running
Running
Run through the silent sorrow
[Pre-Chorus]
Gotta keep my head up to the sky, sky
Let the sun remind you you're alive
Alive inside
[Chorus]
Find the, find the good in letting go, oh, oh
Let the, let the silver lining show, oh, oh
Rise up with a new day
Line up in a new way
Open up your peace of mind
And
Find the, find the good in letting go
[Verse 2]
Breaking patterns, so you can rediscover
Glowing, glowing
Come back to life in color
[Pre-Chorus]
Open up your hands to hold the light, light
Let the sun remind you you're alive
Alive inside
[Chorus]
Find the, find the good in letting go, oh, oh
Let the, let the silver lining show, oh, oh
Rise up with a new day
Line up in a new way
Open up your peace of mind
And
Find the, find the good in letting go
[Bridge]
When you feel you're trapped in the sea of the darkness
Fear feels like it's 10,000 stories high
Remember that we're stronger than voices inside us
The light is always on, on the other side
[Chorus]
Find the, find the good in letting go, oh, oh
Let the, let the silver lining show, oh, oh
Rise up with a new day
Line up in a new way
Open up your peace of mind
And
Find the, find the good in letting go
