[Intro – Whisper / Sober Tone]
Learning how to let go isn’t easy (oh oh)
Needing you when you don’t really need me (whoa oh)
And I can hide my feelings well but I can’t seem to change the way I feel
And no amount of alcohol could get me drunk enough this pain’s too real
[Verse 1]
Why does everyone say it’ll be alright?
Won’t make it through the night
Just pretend like I’m fine (But I can’t)
Lie to my reflection in the mirror (No more)
Blurry nights without her, I can hear her still (Whoa oh oh)
Trying to numb the pain ’cause I know it won’t heal (Whoa oh ohh oh)
[Bridge]
And all these faded nights alone is just to cope
’Cause I just don’t wanna feel
It all gets colder until
December hits a standstill
And you’re gone
I’m stuck here thinking what the hell have I done ’cause–
[Hook – Refrain]
Learning how to let go isn’t easy (oh oh)
Needing you when you don’t really need me (whoa oh)
And I can hide my feelings well but I can’t seem to change the way I feel
And no amount of alcohol could get me drunk enough this pain’s too real
[Verse 2 – Final Reflection]
Your shadow’s in the hallway, still silence in the room
I talk like you’re beside me, but I know It isn’t you
Photos on my walls that I still haven’t moved
Cuz letting go of them feels like I’m letting go of you
[Chorus – Soft to Powerful]
Learning how to let go isn’t easy (oh oh)
Needing you when you don’t really need me (whoa oh)
And I can hide my feelings well but I can’t seem to change the way I feel
And no amount of alcohol could get me drunk enough this pain’s too real
[rising piano melody/ full orchestra]
[ensemble choir vocals]
Whoa oh oh whoa ohh oh oh oh
[lead vocals]
I still get these memories of you
[ensemble choir vocals]
Whoa ohhh oh whoa ohh oh oh
[lead vocals]
I’m still stuck regretting the truth
You know I can’t forget you
[Bridge]
And all these faded nights alone is just to cope
’Cause I just don’t wanna feel
It all gets colder until
December hits a standstill
And you’re gone
I’m stuck here thinking what the hell have I done ’cause–
[Final Chorus – Soft to Powerful]
Learning how to let go isn’t easy oh oh
Needing you when you don’t really need me oh oh
And I can hide my feelings well but I can’t seem to change the way I feel
And no amount of alcohol could get me drunk enough this pain’s too real
Why does everyone say it’ll be alright?
Won’t make it through the night
Just pretend like I’m fine (But I can’t)
Lie to my reflection in the mirror (No more)
[Outro – Fading / Whispered]
But I won’t beg u to stay
And I won’t get in your way
Don’t need to tell me I know
I’ll learn to let go
[soft piano outro]
