Let Me Go - Evertim

Staring at screens, mirroring black

Playing pianos, it’s the teeth I lack

What I’d give to dance through your mind again

Forgotten the paths I took, never looked back

No co-ordination, you took the map

What I’d kill to be in your heart again

Drink myself sober, smoke myself sore

It’s all distraction when I saw you out the back door

I swear I never felt the room spin so slow

That’s about the time you let me go

Dragged me through hell

My only weakness is that I’m wrong

When your heaven held me well

I can’t trust memories

Can’t remember making you happy

And that’s all you deserve to be

And if I’m not in your plans, I understand

The way your face used to light up when you stepped inside

In permanent marker, we wrote the lines

I guess our ink finally ran dry

That’s about the time you let me go

Dragged me through hell

My only weakness is that I’m wrong

When your heaven held me well

And all I’m doing now is trying to

Talk myself out of

Running back to your bed again

You can keep my shirts

Like I kept my words

And I’ll never set foot here again

Turn off the lights

Step back from the line

I’m lying to your face when I tell you I’m fine

It’s about time I let you go

You know

I’m wrong

You’re gonna be strong

And all I’m doing now is trying to

Talk myself out of

Running back to your bed again

You can keep my shirts

Like I kept my words

And I’ll never set foot here again

Turn off the lights

Step back from the line

I’ll keep a straight face, someday I’ll be alright
