When I Let Go

Said it once, now I know
I knew I couldn't stand you from the get-go
I'm tuned out, somewhere else
Can't listen to you talk about yourself

Every word you say
I fade away into a place I know
And I can't explain
I'm wide awake and you keep your eyes closed

And around me all the lights go out
All the sudden there's no one around
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
And there's no room for you to pull me down
I'm in a dream and I'm not leaving now
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go

Lost myself, where's my head?
I guess I drifted out with all the words you said
Don't belong with your type
You couldn't come to my world even if you tried

And what I don't show is what you don't know
Guess you don't care anyway
But what I learned is
I don't need your opinions to make me feel okay

And around me all the lights go out
All the sudden there's no one around
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
And there's no room for you to pull me down
I'm in a dream and I'm not leaving now
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go

And around me all the lights go out
All the sudden there's no one around
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
And there's no room for you to pull me down
I'm in a dream and I'm not leaving now
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
I found my own place to hide, out of view
Where I decide to refuse your truth
Outside the consciousness you're used to
I'd rather die than be one of you

And around me all the lights go out
All the sudden there's no one around
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
And there's no room for you to pull me down
I'm in a dream and I'm not leaving now
And the music is the only sound
I hear when I let go
