Let It Die

Lyrics

Toxicity slippin' to my blood stream
 I give too much, you suck the life out of me
 I fill my cup to drink you into someone else
 And I blame myself
 And I had a dream that we were perfect for each other
 So sick, drivin' through the suburbs
 We're goin' further
 And I hear a voice
 And it says to me
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes?
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's timе to let it die
 (Let it diе, let it die)
 (Let it die, let it die)
 If you lose yourself (let it die)
 You can walk away (let it die)
 (I think it's time)
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
 Not high for this, your heart has reached its limit
 A counterfeit and now the lights are dimmin'
 I won't go back, spinnin' around under your spell
 On a carousel, oh
 I had a dream that we were a beautiful endeavour
 Sunset driving through the suburbs
 Oh, we go no further
 Then I hear a voice (I hear a voice)
 And it's askin' me (and it's askin' me, yeah)
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Oh, did you lose, behind your eyes?)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry (oh)
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
 (When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)
 (When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)
 If you lose yourself (let it die)
 You can walk away (let it die)
 Oh, you let it die, oh, you let it die
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
 
 Toxicity slippin' to my blood stream
 I give too much, you suck the life out of me
 I fill my cup to drink you into someone else
 And I blame myself
 And I had a dream that we were perfect for each other
 So sick, drivin' through the suburbs
 We're goin' further
 And I hear a voice
 And it says to me
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes?
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's timе to let it die
 (Let it diе, let it die)
 (Let it die, let it die)
 If you lose yourself (let it die)
 You can walk away (let it die)
 (I think it's time)
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
 Not high for this, your heart has reached its limit
 A counterfeit and now the lights are dimmin'
 I won't go back, spinnin' around under your spell
 On a carousel, oh
 I had a dream that we were a beautiful endeavour
 Sunset driving through the suburbs
 Oh, we go no further
 Then I hear a voice (I hear a voice)
 And it's askin' me (and it's askin' me, yeah)
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Oh, did you lose, behind your eyes?)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry (oh)
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
 (When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)
 (When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)
 If you lose yourself (let it die)
 You can walk away (let it die)
 Oh, you let it die, oh, you let it die
 When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)
 Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
 And you're holdin' on to love for life
 I think it's time to let it die
