If You Let Me Go

Verse 1

Rain on the window, midnight glow

Streetlights shaking like they know

Every promise I ever made

Is trembling in the words you didn’t say

Your shadow’s pacing down the hall

Every step feels like a fall

I’m holding breath I never breathe

Scared of what you’ll take from me

Pre-Chorus

If love’s a war, I’m unarmed tonight

No shield left, no pride

I built my world on your heartbeat

Now it’s breaking in real time

Chorus

If you let me go, I won’t survive

You’re the air in my lungs tonight

I’d rather drown in the tears we cry

Than learn how to live without your light

I know it ain’t healthy, I know it’s wrong

But you’re the reason I’m still holding on

If loving you means losing control

Then don’t—

Don’t let me go

Verse 2

Your name echoes in empty rooms

Like a ghost wrapped in cheap perfume

I replay fights like they’re songs on repeat

Every silence cutting deeper than screams

I’ve been strong for everybody else

But with you, I’m someone I can’t help

I’m not proud of the way I bend

But I’d break before this love ends

Pre-Chorus 2

You say we’re drowning in the past

But you’re the only shore I have

If you walk out that open door

Tell me what I’m breathing for

Chorus (Bigger, Sweeping Strings)

If you let me go, I won’t survive

You’re the air in my lungs tonight

I’d rather bleed from a thousand fights

Than wake up without you in my life

I know it ain’t healthy, I know it’s wrong

But you’re the reason I’m still holding on

If loving you means losing control

Then don’t—

Don’t let me go

Bridge (Breakdown – Piano + Digital Echo Vocal)

Maybe I’m afraid of being alone

Maybe I made you my only home

I know I’m asking for too much now

But love’s all I know how

(Backing vocals – haunting, airy)

Stay… stay…

Don’t fade… away…

Final Chorus (Power Ballad Lift)

If you let me go, the sky will fall

Every dream I had dies in your arms

I’ll take the pain, I’ll take the blame

Just don’t erase my name

I don’t need saving, I don’t need hope

Just promise me I won’t be alone

If loving you means losing control

Then don’t—

Don’t let me go

Outro

Rain keeps falling, I’m still here

Calling your name like a prayer

If you’re the last thing I hold

Then don’t let me go
