RISE AGAINST lyrics : "This Is Letting Go"

Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.
Always stepped in time, regardless of the beat
I moved my feet, I carried weight

When I could not do a thing
And I'm done seeking treasure
Just to wake up in an early grave

So I stopped right there and said

Go all alone, 'cause I won't follow.

This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
Out with the old dreams I've borrowed
The path I call from here on out will be my own

The path will be my own

This is the part where the needle skips

And the chorus plays like a sink that drips
A syllable repeating, like a warning we're not heeding
Until all is said and we noticed it

When the wheels brace and the tires grip
A map we've been misreading
A defeat we're not conceding

Until now
There must be some other way out


Go all alone, 'cause I won't follow
This isn't giving up no this is letting go
Out with the old dreams I've borrowed

The path I call from here on out will be my own
A path to take me home


(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

The wind died

The whole world ceased to move
Now so quiet
Her beating heart became a boom

We locked eyes
For just a moment or two
She asked why

I said "I don't know why"

I just know


The wind died
The whole world ceased to move

Now so quiet
Her beating heart became a boom
We locked eyes

For just a moment or two
She asked why
I said "I don't know why"

I just know
I just know


Go all alone, 'cause I won't follow
This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
I'll make the most of all this sorrow

I tried to break these tears' contempt but now I'm through
I'm letting go of you.


This is letting go
This is letting go


Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.
