Lyrics
*Letting Go*
I've come too far to turn back now
I've come to far to just give up
And when I'm feeling empty
An angel always fills my cup
Then my blood reveals a rose
On the path to fame lined with bones
And the only road to growth is letting go
I had to stretch myself so far
I felt my skin become so thin
And even when I felt it break
I never wanted to give in
For the few times I changed course
Were the only ones where I lost hope
And the only road to growth is letting go
I'm questioning all that I think I know
And paling in comparison to gold
I'm losing my resistance to the cold
And there's a feeling in my soul
When I start to lose sight of my goals
That the only road to growth _ _ _ _
Is letting goÍ
