Let Her Go

(album: The Skeptic - 2018)

You say you want me to notice the motives
That are forming inside your head
I try to go through the motions
To show you deep down inside I'm not dead

Look at your face and I forget your name
I feel her ghost in every breath you take
Will I ever love you that way
When you say...

If I want it, I should take it
If you move me, I could shake it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go
Taking love from you to waste it
Take your heart in just to break it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go, go, go

Try to feel pain when you hurt
Just like I used to feel when she hurt back then
I know it's not fair you deserve
To be cared for and all I can do is pretend

I hear her voice in every word you say
I feel her ghost in every breath you take
Will I ever love you that way
When you say...

If I want it, I should take it
If you move me, I could shake it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go
Taking love from you to waste it
Take your heart in just to break it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go, go, go

Look at your face and I forget your name
I know it's not fair and with every breath
I feel a burning shame
When I can't let her go, go, go
