Don't let the loneliness stop you from being kind
Don't let them say that your peace is a waste of time
Don't let them crush all your dreams, then change their mind
Oh, this room was built for one chair only
I'm not empty, I'm just lonely
Tied to the ghost of you
I can be gentle too
Oh-oh, just one look and I'm less reclusive
Slurring words, we speak in cursive
It's just a passing phase
I whisper as you fade
Oh, letting me go isn't the only answer
Oh, letting me go makes the world spin faster
No one like me doesn't mean you won't like me
Oh, I'll let you go
It's a pattern on repeat
Don't let utopia haunt you
There's more to save
Don't stop the search for the perfect
You're smart and brave
Don't let them sail off in anger
Just smile and wave
Oh, the ship takes off, now I'm the captain
Gentle breeze, I'll make it happen
I'm gonna lock the doors
No one allowed on board
Oh, I won't choose, I'm not ungrateful
Making peace to quell the hateful
Look at the mess you made
I whisper as you fade
Oh, letting me go isn't the only answer
Oh, letting me go makes the world spin faster
No one like me doesn't mean you won't like me
Oh, I'll let you go
It's a pattern on repeat
