Let me go

Don’t look for me where we once stayed,
I’m only in the songs we made.
We sang our final song right through,
Now different roads divide us two.

Our secrets faded with the dawn,
The warmth we had is cold and gone.
I won’t return to that old place,
You’re just a friend I can’t replace.

Don’t write about the nights we knew,
I’m tired of words that led to you.
We once were closer than the rest,
Now distance lives inside our chest.

I’ll close the door and kill the light,
You have no place in my tonight.
Your spring can live inside my past,
But I know now it couldn’t last.

Let me go, and I’ll let you go,
There’s nothing left we need to know.
All the words we left behind,
I forgive them, one last time.

Let this pain release my heart,
Let me find my missing part.
Don’t call my name, don’t make me stay,
I need to find myself today.

If you see me, just walk away,
Don’t wake what died another day.
I’ll leave our yesterday behind,
And choose my peace, my life, my mind.
