False Idol

I've got so much more to say to you
The look in your eyes is making me blue
I know you gotta do what you gotta do

I'm tumbling down a mountain of rain
Trouble comes easy and love never stays
My belief in myself is slipping away

I gave myself in, I stood out in the storm
A heavenly bliss, a false idol born
Now my spirit is ragged and torn

Is it really holding on if you can't let go?

I turned to the truth and the truth, it was not there
I turned to myself and I didn't care
It's hard to have faith in a world this unfair

She's a memory wrapped around me so tight
She's keeping me from freedom, keeping me from flight
And I watched her fly away, I watched her with spite

Is it really holding on if you can't let go?

You can be free to roam, and free to move on
You can be a prisoner who has done no wrong
You can look up at the stars and believe there is meaning to their light
