Once upon a time I could take anything, anything
I always stepped in time, regardless of the beat
I moved my feet, I carried weight
What I could not do I faked
I´m done seeking treasure
Just to wake up in an early grave
So I stopped right then and said

Go on alone
Because I won´t follow
But this isn´t giving up
no, this is letting go
Out with the old
Dreams I´ve borrowed
The path I carve from here on out will be my own
This path will be my own

This is the part where the needle skips and the chorus plays
Like a sink that drips
A syllable repeating
Like a warning we aren´t heeding until all of
A sudden we notice it
When the wheels brace and the tires grip
A map we´ve been misreading
A defeat we´re not conceding until now
There must be some other way out

Go on alone
Because I won´t follow
But this isn´t giving up
No, this is letting go
Out with the old
Dreams I´ve borrowed
The path I carve from here on out will be my own
A path to take me home

The wind died
The whole world ceased to move
Now so quiet
Her beating heart became a boom
We locked eyes
For just a moment or two
She asked why
I said, "I don´t know why, I just know."

The wind died

Go on alone
Because I won´t follow
This isn´t giving up
No, this is letting go
I made the most
Of all this sorrow
I tried to brave this discontent but now I´m through
I´m letting go of you

This is letting go
This is letting go

Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.
