The Thermals
I Let It Go
I was lost, I was hurt
I was trapped out at sea
I was swimming in circles of circles
In the last place I wanted to be

I was holding on to a love I knew so long
I thought it must be keeping me afloat
Only when I was down
Only when I was drowning
Did I finally feel the hands on my throat

I looked my fear in the eyes
Looked at the water below
I knew I could love or live
I let it go
I let it go
I let it go

I walked in the dark
I walked in the rain
I walked for miles and miles and years
All I knew was heartache and pain

I was weighted with the hate I held so long
I thought it must be guiding me home
Only when I was crossed
Only when I was lost
Did I finally see it left me all alone
I looked my fear in the eyes
Looked at the cold ground below
I knew I could love or die
I let it go
I let it go
I let it go

I looked my fear in the eyes
Looked at the cold ground below
I knew I could love or die
I let it go
I let it go
I let it go

I let it go
I let it go
Four on the floor
Two in the air
Out of the sand
Out of the sky
Into the flow

I looked my fear in the eye
I looked at the water below
I knew I could love or live
I let it go
I let it go
I looked my fear in the eyes
I looked at the water below
I knew I could love or die
I let it go
I let it go
