Don't Let Go
Act of Apathy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Buried alive
Between stones keeping me cold in my mind
Sorry
I'm sorry
Got the feeling you can't see me
But I'm seeing you
As you are falling
With every minute, I can't unsee it
Lay beside me
Start breathing slowly
And listen closely to my words
You gotta know
I'll follow you into your darkest thoughts
We both will rise above it all
We'll make it through this
Someday, I promise, everything
Will feel okay in the end
Don't let go
Going insane
In this lonely bed that I alone have made
Fade out
No cure
Am I stuck here forevermore
Well, I'm hearing you
As you are calling
While no one hears it, don't think you need it
Lay beside me
Start breathing slowly
And listen closely to my words
You're not alone
I'll follow you into your darkest thoughts
We both will rise above it all
We'll make it through this
Someday, I promise, everything
Will feel okay in the end
Don't let go
Let go
Don't let go
Just try not to let go
Don't let go
I'll follow you into your darkest thoughts
We both will rise above it all
We'll make it through this
Someday, I promise, everything
Will feel okay in the end
Don't let go
I'll follow you into your darkest thoughts
We both will rise above it all
We'll make it through this
Someday, I promise, everything




Will feel okay in the end
Don't let go
