Let You Go
Unwritten Law Lyrics

Hey kids go rock n roll
Addressing the audience, encouraging them to embrace and enjoy rock n roll music

That's what you told me, what you sold Me just before I got my soul back
Acknowledging that the audience once convinced the singer to embrace rock n roll and praising them for that, because it helped him to regain his sense of self and purpose

In fact id like to thank you for that
Expressing gratitude towards the audience for their positive influence on the singer's life

Cause if it wasn't just for you I Wouldn't know what to laugh at
Reflecting on the role of rock n roll in bringing joy and humor into the singer's life

I forecast the change in the weather
Boasting about the singer's ability to predict and adapt to changes in circumstances and trends

You do it well but you know I do it better
Competitive attitude towards others who share the same skills or interests

And whether you like it or not I'm hot as volcanic ash and no ones Ever takin' my spot
Asserting the singer's confidence in his own abilities and potential for success

You know ill let you go I'll let you go I'll let you
Communicating the singer's willingness to let someone go from their relationship

But sometimes it might be better if we Weren't forever Oh no cause forever is a long time
Acknowledging that some relationships are not meant to last forever and that permanence is not always desirable

However in the mean time
Transition to a new idea or continuation of the previous one, depending on context

Listen close I'm here to let you know That your sun don't shine past my Smashed out windows
Warning someone that they have no power or influence over the singer's life and that they should not try to control or limit him

That little rose is a thing of the past And if you think I'm even joking You've been smoking all you dads stash
Denying the importance or relevance of a past relationship and ridiculing someone for underestimating the singer's seriousness

I forecast a change in the season If the leaves are falling off there must be a reason
Making another prediction and implying that there are signs of change in the air

Believe me if I'm leaving or not This here's out very last shot So baby give me all that you got
Leaving open the possibility of leaving the relationship but also urging the other person to fully invest and engage with the singer in the present moment

I, want you Want every little thing to be about you
Revealing the singer's desire to have someone as a significant part of his life

If you promise not to be a little thorn In my side Then every little thing is going to be Alright
Making a conditional statement that establishing a boundary in the relationship (i.e. not getting on the singer's nerves) will lead to a more harmonious and positive experience

And I need you But I don't think that I'll never leave you
Balancing the singer's desire for companionship with an acknowledgement that nothing lasts forever

The cutest little thing that I ever did see There's just a couple things that matter to me There's one I'm here for fun There's two I make the rules There's three It's all about me And there's four There's no more no more
Listing the singer's priorities and preferences in a relationship, highlighting the importance of fun, control, and self-interest

So sayonara 'Cause there is no tomorrow Here's to all the new drama And cheers to all that may follow
Saying goodbye to the past and embracing the uncertainty of the future, anticipating new experiences and adventures

All together now Oh no all in forever now
Concluding the song with a call to unity or solidarity among the audience
