When I Let You Go

[Verse 1]
I wait for mornings, as I hide away in bed
And search for the warnings in all the quiet things you said
I rearrange the x and another sleepless night
It'll never change the fact that you didn't put up a fight

[Chorus]
When I let you go
When I let you go
The boy that I had always been
The soul that I had come to know
Never came around again
When I let you go

[Verse 2]
The winding road was not what made your stomach turn
It was the lies you had to make before the turn
I showed you golden gates as I gave you golden rings
You brought me the coldest days as you promised better things

[Chorus]
When I let you go
When I let you go
The boy that I had always been
The soul that I had come to know
Never came around again
When I let you go

[Verse 3]
Go be discovered as I slowly fade away
Time has uncovered you were low enough to stray
So does he breathe you in and unearth the heart to mend?
You let me bleed for him; was it worth it in the end?

[Chorus]
When I let you go
When I let you go
The boy that I had always been
The soul that I had come to know
Never came around again
When I let you go

[Outro]
The boy that I had always been
The soul that I had come to know
Never came around again
When I let you go
