Lyrics

Verse 1

Numb lungs

Breathing in the math of my mistakes

Caught within the gears of a clock that never breaks

Sinking

Thinking I am made of better stuff

Until the room is shaking and I've had enough

Pre-Chorus

Falling up to find a landing

Watching through the glass of standing

Losing all the ground I'm gaining

Nothing left to hold

Chorus

Give it all away

Burn the crown I built of clay

Let it go

Watch it go

Looking for a spark

Tearing holes inside the dark

Let it go

Watch it go

Drop

Go

Go

Verse 2

Ripping out the wires in my chest

Quiet on the surface but I'm failing the test

I'm a pilot

I'm a coward

I'm a riot in a vest

Seven days of silence

Maybe I will win

Maybe I am thin

Maybe I am worn down to the bone

Running from a habit I should never own

Salt inside a cut

Iron in the gut

Pre-Chorus

Falling up to find a landing

Watching through the glass of standing

Losing all the ground I'm gaining

Nothing left to hold

Chorus

Give it all away

Burn the crown I built of clay

Let it go

Watch it go

Looking for a spark

Tearing holes inside the dark

Let it go

Watch it go

Drop

Go

Go

Bridge

Cut the rope

Clear the smoke

Take the hope

Tied to everything I used to be

There's a pulse I finally see

Turning every gray to gold

Breaking every lock and hold

Chorus

Give it all away

Burn the crown I built of clay

Let it go

Watch it go

Looking for a spark

Tearing holes inside the dark

Let it go

Watch it go

Drop

Go

Go

Let it go

Watch it go

Let it go

Watch it go
