Let Me Go

We're not on the rocks
We're on the fuckin' edge of a cliff
And I'm not gonna lie
Sometimes when we talk
It's like tryna read hieroglyphs
I'm tired of screaming and crying
Caught in the throes of the storm
The lines on your face look worn
How did we get so torn?

Are you happy you asking?
I know what you're asking
Is if we should call it quits
I don't have the answers at all
And all I know what to say in response is

I don't wanna give up on this
But don't you let me go
Don't you let me go

I got drunk again, didn't I?

Fuck, you're mad and I don't know why
What did I say or do wrong this time?
Was I so out of line you can't leave it behind?

No, you're right, I'm sorry, fuck
Can we start over?
Do it again when I'm sober
Take it slower, here, baby, come closer

No, don't walk away, stay
I won't get angry again, hey
I don't deserve to be treated this way
A couple of drinks after a shit day is normal
Yeah, I got sloppy, who cares?
Maybe I'd drink less if you were there
It's not fair

Even when you're here, you're somewhere else
I'm just looking for help
'Cause even with you, I feel like I'm all by myself

But don't you let me go
Don't you let me go
'Cause I'm not ready to lose what we had, baby, and I
Don't you let me go

Change your mind on a dime
Thought you said you would actually try
Gave up and ran off without a goodbye
Merry Christmas, have a nice life
No, we can't ever be friends
I thought you were my fucking person

Don't tell me how much it hurts you to break me
This whole time you've been faking
Said when we got real, you won't leave
You'd stand by me, didn't wanna be
A coward like your dad
But you should envy your old man
He fears the world 'cause he loves what he has

You're so afraid of love, it doesn't stand a chance

But don't you let me go
Don't you let me go
'Cause I'm not ready to lose what we had, baby, and I
