[Verse 1]
I feel like a runaway,
Seeing the light of day
For the first time,
I'm drawing the line.
It's hard to care when you know it all,
In slow motion I watch you fall.
Like you're blind,
Thoughts poison the mind.
I always bend when it comes to you.
I think you'll change but you never do,
You never do.
I enable you.
[Chorus]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how.
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget.
Forgive and forget.
Let me down, let me down like only you know how.
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget.
Forgive and forget.
[Verse 2]
Wish that I could say this to your face,
Something different, something brave.
Wish I would, but I never could.
I feel you slowly pulling me in,
I try to help but it's sink or swim
And you're a weight.
There's comfort in pain.
[Chorus]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how.
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget.
Forgive and forget.
Let me down, let me down like only you know how.
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget.
Forgive and forget.
[Bridge]
You've drained all the love I had,
All I had for you.
Yeah, you've drained all the love I had,
All I had for you.
All I had for you!
[Outro]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how.
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget.
Forgive and forget.
