No one wants to let go You gotta fight against your every instinct And that's hard to do No one wants to quit No one wants to admit to themselves What's actually true Only you Can be the one to make the first move Push through the pain Only you can be the one to say I'm done and walk away It's gonna hurt But it's what I have to do I'm leaving now I'm putting one foot in front of the other now I deserve to let you go And build a better version on my own Somehow I feel better already Or at least a bit lighter Just by deciding I've left you behind There's room in my head Now that getting you back isn't taking up every inch Of my mind It's strange to imagine my everyday Without you Without waking up next to your face It's strange that I don't have a clue What'll happen when I leave this place But I know for sure It's what I have to do I'm leaving now (okay, yep) I'm putting one foot in front of the other now I deserve to let you go And build a better version on my own Somehow And if you're listening, I love you I think I always will
