let me go

Butch Walker

Turn the tv off, put down the cosmopolitan
I'd like to think that I'm not asking alot
Oh my god, this static is bad for my complexion
This town has turned you into someone you're not

And every other day I hear another brother say
That I'm standing in line

Please, just let me go, just let me go
And if it's all over, just tell me so, just tell me so
Please, just let me go
And I won't be your shadow anymore

I passed the house last night, knowing it was my last time
I'd see the dent of anger kicked in your car
In the rear view mirror, thoughts of sex cross my mind
Looks like the drama queen is finally a star
And every other day I hear another brother saying that
I'm crazy, for lying to myself and you for trying

Please, just let me go, just let me go
And if it's all over, just tell me so, just tell me so
Please, just let me go
And I won't be your shadow anymore

You lost your mind, I lost my keys
Sometime last night, when I was on my knees
I miss the smile, that you traded for the cold piece of armor
Wrapped around you heart

Please, just let me go, just let me go
And if it's all over, just tell me so, just tell me so
Please, just let me go
And I won't be your shadow anymore
