Let Go
Maxeen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But decided there was nothing to say
And a chemical reaction
Was the science
That withstand in the way?????
Distracted by the nonsense
You moved forward and I stayed behind
To find the point to go nowhere
An open mind begins to see
The destruction of????
Let go, let go, or fall apart
Let go, let go,
Stop building walls around your heart???? and dance
But the rhythm??? my ear
No beating????
I slowly disappear
Until now, we'll hope and pray
As something comes and takes me away
You proved me wrong, you proved me right
There's still no gain to this useless fight
Let go, let go, or fall apart
Let go, let go,
Stop building walls around your heart
No one wants to sit and stare
And watch the???? go nowhere
You try and make me feel OK
But just stand up in somethings way
Don't you want it, don't you care
While your efforts go nowhere?????????
A pointless waste of energy
Let go, let go, let go, let go
(My love isn't making me)
Let go, let go, or fall apart
Let go, let go,
Stop building walls around your heart
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Stop building walls around your heart
In Maxeen's song Let Go, the lyrics depict a relationship in turmoil, where one person wants to move forward and let go of the past while the other is stuck in the chaos of their emotions. The first verse suggests that there was an attempt to talk about their issues but nothing was said, and a "chemical reaction" got in the way, perhaps referring to emotional responses. In the chorus, the lyrics call for letting go or falling apart because building walls around their heart will only lead to destruction. The second verse shows the struggle to move forward, hoping and praying that something will come and take them away while not gaining anything from their useless fight.
Overall, the message of the song seems to be that it's necessary to let go of the past to move forward and grow, rather than holding onto emotions that will only lead to destruction. The song's lyrics resonate with anyone who has struggled to let go of a relationship or situation that no longer serves them.
Line by Line Meaning
I stopped you for a moment*
I reached out to you briefly
But decided there was nothing to say
But then I realized I had no words to say
And a chemical reaction
Maybe it was the chemistry between us
Was the science
That kept us together
That withstand in the way?????
But it also stood in our way somehow
Distracted by the nonsense
I was distracted by irrelevant things
You moved forward and I stayed behind
While you moved on, I couldn't move forward
Until now, we'll sit and stare
Now we are stuck just sitting and staring
To find the point to go nowhere
Trying to find a reason to do nothing
An open mind begins to see
But having an open mind helps us see more clearly
The destruction of????
Our relationship falling apart, maybe?
Let go, let go, or fall apart
We need to let go or we will fall apart
Stop building walls around your heart???? and dance
Tear down your emotional barriers and dance freely
But the rhythm??? my ear
Even though I hear a rhythm
No beating????
I can't find a pulse, metaphorically speaking
I slowly disappear
I slowly fade away from this relationship
Until now, we'll hope and pray
We still hold on and hope for something better
As something comes and takes me away
But maybe something external will take me away
You proved me wrong, you proved me right
You showed me the good and bad sides of this relationship
There's still no gain to this useless fight
But it's still pointless to keep fighting
No one wants to sit and stare
Nobody enjoys just sitting there doing nothing
And watch the???? go nowhere
And see how everything just goes nowhere
You try and make me feel OK
You try to comfort me and make me feel better
But just stand up in somethings way
But something is still blocking me from moving forward
Don't you want it, don't you care
Don't you want this relationship to work? Don't you care?
While your efforts go nowhere?????????
But even if you try, it seems like it's going nowhere
A pointless waste of energy
It's all just a waste of our energy
Let go, let go, let go, let go
We really need to let go
(My love isn't making me)
Despite my love, it's not enough to hold us together
Stop building walls around your heart
We need to stop being emotionally closed off and distant from each other
