Let Me Go
RKVC Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Down this road
When things have changed
A million miles from now
I hope I'll never be the same

Along these lines
I have learned
A thousand faces come and go
And you can never be sure

And the man inside doubts the most
And Keeps me locked out from this world
He'll clench these fists and bear me down
'Til I can't fight no more

Let me go
Let it go
Every day is just the same damn thing
Until I can let it go
Let me go
Let it go
Break these rigid fingers from these fists
Until I can let it go

Believe in me
I believe it takes
More than just a dream
For life to go my way
Sick and tired
Of all my mistakes
I'll climb out where I am
Just hope it's not too late

Let me go
Let it go
Every day is just the same damn thing
Until I can let it go
Let me go
Let it go




Break these rigid fingers from these fists
Until I can let it go
