Letting Go

Couldn't you see that I
wouldn't believe your lies?
How could you not know
I would have to let you go.

Couldn't you hear in me
all that I refuse to be?
How could you miss the truth
that I am not like you.

Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.

Couldn't you see me?
How you leave me bleeding?
How can you justify
all the wounds you leave behind.

Couldn't you hear your lies?
Your power to paralyze?
Like you think you have the right
to take over me tonight.

Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.

Bridge:
I love you; I hate you;
I'm torn in between.
You love nothing more than
to cause me misery.
I wanted to save you;
eyes open now I can see.
You don't want salvation
and holding you hurts me.

I can't hold on to you.

Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.
