[Verse 1 very intimate]
I try to forget, but you live in my breath
In every silence, in all my regrets
I pull you out, then you pull me back in
Like loving you is a beautiful sin
I tell myself this won’t ruin me
But I’m already not who I used to be
[Pre-Chorus - almost whispered]
If I stay, I disappear
If I leave, I face my fear
Chorus
You need to leave
You’re like a drug that I don’t need
And I’m losing myself completely
Slowly drifting away
Please set me free
Please let me go
I’m slowly fading away
You need to set me free
Before there’s nothing left of me
Verse 2
I don’t miss you — I miss who I become
When you make me feel like I’m someone
But when you’re gone, I feel so small
Like I’m nothing without you at all
I hate that you feel like air to me
That I can’t tell love from dependency
[Pre-Chorus almost whispered]
If I stay, I disappear
If I leave, I face my fear
Chorus
You need to leave
You’re like a drug that I don’t need
And I’m losing myself completely
Slowly drifting away
Please set me free
Please let me go
I’m slowly fading away
You need to set me free
Before there’s nothing left of me
[Bridge emotional low point]
I don’t want to let you go
It tears me up inside
To never feel your love again
I wish we could just let it slide
But I need to think of me
And be who I’m meant to be
Even if it breaks my heart
I’m letting go to save me
[Final Chorus / Outro (broken, repetitive]
You need to leave
You need to let me go
Please set me free
Let me go
Please let me go
I’m losing myself completely
Slowly drifting away
You need to set me free
Before there’s nothing left of me
Before there’s nothing left
Nothing left of me
Tonenico
