[Verse 1]
I'm afraid of the day I don't miss you, I know it'll come
The day that I see you and don't wanna run
The day I don't call you when I get too drunk
And say I still love you and then you hang up
[Chorus]
I know I should stop holding on
I know that I'm not what you want
But when I let go of the pain that I feel
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over
[Verse 2]
I threw away all your t-shirts and, trust me, it still hurt
To see them tied up in a bag
I had too much ill will to go to the Goodwill
Who am I to turn riches to rags?
So I drove to the Valley and pulled down an alley
And grabbed the first dumpster I found
Yeah, I lifted the lid and threw in your shit
Said a prayer and spit on the ground
[Chorus]
I know I should stop holding on
I know that I'm not what you want
But when I let go of the pain that I feel
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over
[Bridge]
And I'm not worried, no
'Cause I'll be happy someday
And I'm not worried, no
'Cause I'll be happy someday
[Chorus]
I know I should stop holding on
I know that I'm not what you want
But when I let go of the pain that I feel
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
That's when it's over, that's when it's over for real
