Let Me Go;

You're sitting on your bed
You're grinning from ear to ear
I can smell the evening some things seem pleasing to you and only you
I was waiting up for you
Well I worried about you
I put them to bed
But they missed their dad
Just where in the hell where you

The first step is always truth
That's my first suggestion to you
I can do my best if you'd get some rest
And you tell me just what you do

I wanna help you
I wanna bring you back to life
But your sad sick brain knows one damn thing
and it comes out every night

So, don't let me go
Don't let me go

The choices are hard to make
You make this harder every day
Sure I'm leaving it's more deceiving, I'm fumbling for the words to say
I gave you everything I had
Well, I love you til the death
And the hearts gonna beat, you're able to breathe
Surely you're dead to me
The shivers and shakes your body makes are gonna go away
That's the price you paid for the games you played
And nothings going to change
I can't help you, I can't bring you back to life
If you find your help from someone else
that's there and has the time

Just don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go

Try to get dressed and put your shoes on
Let's get to the car, let's make this right
The drive is short but it sure feels long
That's just how it is when you're leaving home
This isn't the end of your life
It's more like a pause and soon a start
You'll be back on your feet again in no time
If you're not with me, well I'm just not fine.

Tried convincing God to change you
We had it out and he said no
Said a choice is a choice and he says you made it
He helped you along but God why is nothing free

You fill me up with hope, god, I used it
I used it all, on you, can't you see?
There comes a time when you choose for another
So I'm making this choice, just for the three, that we made
And don't you remember

So just let me go
Just let me go
Just let me go
Just let me go
