Let You Go
Holly Drummond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And in our heads
We're lost for words they've already
All been said
Round and round and round
We go
Searching for the ones we used to know
Do I wanna go
Do I wanna push you out of my life?
But I seem to feel
Like there's something more to this
Something I need to find
You cannot control me
My feelings or thoughts
Don't wanna pretend that
We're something we're not
Yeah I just wanna let you go
We don't fit together like before
You say we've got it all but I want more
Round and round and round
We go
Strangers in this place we used to know
Do I wanna stay
Do I wanna go
Do I wanna push you out of my life?
But I seem to feel
Like there's something more to this
Something I need to find
You cannot control me
My feelings or thoughts
Don't wanna pretend that
We're something we're not
Yeah I just wanna let you go
You cannot control me
You cannot control
You cannot control me
Control...
Do I wanna stay
Do I wanna go
Do I wanna push you out of my life?
But I seem to feel
Like there's something more to this
Something I need to find
You cannot control me
My feelings or thoughts
Don't wanna pretend that
We're something we're not
Yeah I just wanna let you go
You cannot control me
You cannot control
You cannot control me
Control...
Holly Drummond's song "Let You Go" explores a love which has been lost over time. It speaks about two people who have drifted away from each other and who are no longer the same as they used to be when they were together. The first verse is about the struggle of communication between them. They are strangers in the dark and in their heads, they are lost for words. They are unable to express themselves, and everything that needed to be said has already been said. The second verse is about the singer's confusion about the future of their relationship. She is unsure whether she wants to stay or go or push her partner out of her life. She senses that there is something more to the situation but is unable to articulate it. She asserts her independence and makes it clear that her partner cannot control her feelings or her thoughts. In the chorus, she states that she wants to let go of her partner and move on from their relationship.
The song's theme is universal, and the lyrics are relatable to anyone who has been in a relationship where love has been lost over time. The song's melancholic tone, combined with Holly Drummond's haunting vocals, conveys the bitter-sweet emotions that come with the end of a relationship. The song's climax reinforces the idea that love cannot be controlled or forced, and sometimes the best thing to do is to let go of what no longer serves us.
Line by Line Meaning
We're strangers in the dark
We don't know each other well enough
And in our heads
Our thoughts are clouding our judgment
We're lost for words they've already
We are struggling to communicate anything new
All been said
All possible things have already been said
Round and round and round
We keep going through the same cycle
We go
We search for something we lost in the past
Do I wanna stay
Should I keep holding on?
Do I wanna go
Is it time to let go?
Do I wanna push you out of my life?
Do I want to end this relationship?
But I seem to feel
But I can sense that
Like there's something more to this
There is something I am missing
Something I need to find
Something I have to investigate
You cannot control me
You have no power over me
My feelings or thoughts
My emotions or opinions
Don't wanna pretend that
I don't want to fake that
We're something we're not
We don't have a connection anymore
Yeah I just wanna let you go
I just want to end things without creating any problems
We don't fit together like before
We are not compatible like we used to be
You say we've got it all but I want more
You think we have everything, but I need something else
Strangers in this place we used to know
We have become unknown to each other now
You cannot control me
You don't have power over my decisions
Control...
You cannot control me
