Let Go
Slingshot Dakota Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pull the knives out of our backs
It's time we let ourselves heal
I think it's time we let go

There's so much more to this
There's so much more than the notes we choose to sing

And we're traveling the same speeds

And isn't strange that we're travelling to the same places?

There's so much more to this




There's so much more than the notes we choose to sing
I think it's time we let go
