Let Me Leave Lyrics

Wide awake in clothes I haven't changed
For days and days as the sun creeps through the window on my face.
Just let it go.
You say I'm like a ghost; my skin is white as paper as I haunt the halls of my home.

I scream like it would stop the ache
Your colors start to show.
I know what I have to do, but it kills me.

Rewriting all the songs
I'd change your name but I know you'll still take everything to heart.
Just let it go.I wonder if we'll die with hope
Or if we'll be counting the sins we carry deeply as we go.

I just wanted you to have a better life.
Not always shying away from your thoughts on the inside.
I could set you free.

I put you on a shelf
Knowing that I'd be
Too far to reach you from down in hell.

The sun slumps back as I burn your dreams to the best of my ability so just let me leave.

I scream like it would stop the ache.
Your colors start to show.
I know what I have to do, but it kills me

Sleep; if anything, I'll dream.
It's only then I'll have you
I know what I have to do, but it kills me.
