Just Let It Go lyrics

Sitting in a car while I'm standing on the front porch/watching as the headlights disappear into the night/we said that this is what we wanted but it still hurts/like the necessary sting of an amputation/discard the useless limb you no longer have need for

We tried to live a lie/ignore the holes we dug between us/and the walls that we had built all around/Our inner sanctums left defended/by two years of truly loving were/lost to years of quiet resignment/and several months of truly hating ourselves

It seems strange that what took years to build up to can be/cast aside by a few days in your local court house/replace that golden band with a white sheet of paper/I could keep it for memories' sake or make a quick buck/that little golden thing became a couple hundred beers

We tried to live a lie/ignore the holes we dug between us/and the walls that we had built all around/Our inner sanctums left defended/by two years of truly loving were/lost to years of quiet resignment/and several months of truly hating ourselves

And I still think about you/I reminisce to find just/what exactly went amiss/but my answers are all empty/like the bottle that's beside me/and I think it's time that I should just let go

We tried to live a lie/ignore the holes we dug between us/and the walls that we had built all around/Our inner sanctums left defended/by two years of truly loving were/lost to years of quiet resignment/and several months of truly hating ourselves/but now we can breathe easily/I don't need you there beside me/I can stand strong all on my own/and maybe I was wrong about/the way i thought about you/the limb was fine all along I/just needed to let go of my crutch
