Oh the lives we're leading.
I can feel it in my bones.
You give so much of yourself,
You can hardly stand alone.
The dreams you had are fading
To invite reality
And now you have but nowhere else
To lean.
So try to live it happy.
It's a path that you will lose.
Like sneaking through the gates of Hell
With bells tied to your shoes.
And all the while I'm lost
Inside my constant reverie.
I'm falling for this girl
Like Icarus fell in the sea.
So let me go. Let me go.
It's my life, I got to live it.
If I don't, I'll grow old
And I'll grow cold and I'll regret it.
Every day that goes by
Will not let me forget it
And I'll drown in my desire
Forever more.
Each day is like a warning,
So precious pa**ing by.
So you're drinking to the future
To remind yourself of time,
But still it isn't clicking,
Like a caution from a mine.
You drank me up like poison
And you thought that I was wine.
So let me go. Let me go.
It's my life, I got to live it.
If I don't, I'll grow old
And I'll grow cold and I'll regret it.
Every day that goes by
Will not let me forget it
And I'll drown in my desire
Forever more.
Oh, there's no turn-around.
Whoa, 'til you lay yourself to sleep.
You take your dreams
On broken wings and leap.
So let me go. Let me go.
It's my life, I got to live it.
If I don't, I'll grow old
And I'll grow cold and I'll regret it.
Every day that goes by
Will not let me forget it
And I'll drown in my desire
Forever more
