lyrics

Your feelings stay high like a second wind when you didn't need one
Your hands keep tight as the words you heard replay again

And it creeps into the day
The sounds that break away
You know you've heard before
But nothing stops you…

Why is it so hard to let go?
Try to just release, your mind won't…
Why is it so hard to let go?

Just keeping the grip on what you thought you had your hands on
The lessons you learn even though they burn, your fist remains strong

As it creeps into your day
The sounds that break away
You know you've heard before
But nothing stops you…

Why is it so hard to let go?
Try to just release, your mind won't…
Why is it so hard to let go?
