The Day I Let Go Lyrics

What a waste of life this is, every altercation I permit is like a quiet sigh,
From a man resigned to a place that was never his.
And the hours are long, even in a world where I belong.
Every second stays, every minute counts against my sentence.

I fall...I had to let you go...

What I tried to accomplish died.
Every offer of faith I had to fight and a dream unfolds.
The moon is cold because the sun left early.
And the days go by, even when my conscience just won't try.
Every week decays, every mouth is rotten.
I am forgotten.

I fall...I had to let you go.
I fall...my mind is all I know.
I fall...the table turns to dust.
I fall...today, I let go of my trust.

What a waste of time I am, every ounce of life is just dead flesh.
I can't forget, but then again you can't let me remember.
When I try to speak, every word I say comes out so bleak.
I don't want this, I don't want you,
But I don't want anyone.
I don't want anyone...

I fall...I had to let you go.
I fall...my mind is all I know.
I fall...the table turns to dust.
I fall...today, I let go of my trust.
I let go of my trust.
I let go of my trust.
I let go of my trust.
I let go of my trust.
I let go of my trust.
(Of my trust.)
