There's a freedom in goodbye
There's a peace in saying: Love and let die
Let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go
I've reached the end of every line
Knuckles white from desperate clinging to hope
But it's time to let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go

And I fought, and I begged, and I tried to be strong
And I kicked, and I screamed, and I tried to hold on
And it hurt me more
Now I let it go, let it go, let it go

They say that hope's the last to leave
But it can steal your heart and mind like a beautiful thief
Now I know, now I know
To let it go, let it go

And I fought, and I begged, and I tried to be strong
And I kicked, and I screamed, and I tried to hold on
And it hurt me more
Now I let it go, let it go
If I hang on to this dream, there's no way I can heal
So I'll stand, and I'll scream, take my hands off the wheel
The thought I can't control
Now I let it go, let it go

Thought hope alone would turn the tide
And now I'm drowning in the lie
Like a weight tied to a rope
I let it go, let it go
I let it go, let it go

And I fought, and I begged, and I tried to be strong
And I kicked, and I screamed, and I tried to hold on
And it hurt me more
Now I let it go, let it go
If I hang on to this dream, there's no way I can heal
So I'll stand, and I'll scream, take my hands off the wheel
That's all I can control
Now I let it go, let it go
I, I let it go, let it go, let it go
