Let You Go
Dathan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

My mind is going on
My heart is holding on
I need to let you go
I feel like giving up

My mind is going on
My heart is holding on
I need to let you go

I feel like giving up

It's 2 am in the bed with you
You sees between your lies and knew
It feels like home of faces flash
From the screen
From the screen

Some movie when I'm watching
We know it's a distraction
We're better of just thinking this
It's real or just fake it is

The friction just accepted
Are issues just forget it
I know it's hard to let it go

My mind is going on
My heart is holding on
I need to let you go
I feel like giving up

My mind is going on
My heart is holding on
I need to let you go
I feel like giving up

Give it up
Give it up on you

Give it up
Give it up on you

But i don't,But I don't
Wanna lose you

But i don't,But I don't
Wanna lose you

His mind and heart are at odds with each other, as he struggles to move on from a person he still cares deeply about. He knows he needs to let go of the past, but his heart is holding onto the hope that they can reconcile. As the night wears on, he sees through their lies, and wonders if the love he shared with them was ever real. Distracting himself with movies and other things doesn't work, and he realizes that he can't just forget about their problems and issues.

The friction between them is accepted, but it's not enough to fix their problems. He understands that it's hard to let go of someone you love, but he also knows that he has to give up on them, to move forward in his life. The repetition of “My mind is going on, My heart is holding on, I need to let you go, I feel like giving up” is a powerful reminder that sometimes it's necessary to give up on something if it's causing you pain and emotional distress.

Overall, the song is an emotional rollercoaster that tackles the complicated nature of heartbreak and moving on. It's a cathartic experience that listeners can relate to, especially those who have experienced the struggles of letting someone they love go.
