*Let Go.

What made you realize it was falling apart?

What kept you holding on?

When did you know you loved me?

When did you figure out it was true?

How long will it take you to figure out I don't love you?

When will you know it's over?

How long must you make me suffer while you cling to the past? How long will I hurt for the things you've done to me?

How long?

When will you let me go?

When will you see I don't love you anymore?

When will you go away?

When will you let go?

When will you let me let go?

How much longer can you hold on to what isn't there?

How much pain will you make me go through?

How much more pain can you create?

When will you fall asleep and wake up without thinking of me?

When will you no longer dream of me?

When will you walk by me but no longer see who I was to you?

When will you let go?

When?

Can I move on yet?

Can I stop hurting now?

Can I let go of you yet?

Can I make you see I don't love you?

Can I stop hurting today?

Can I sleep tonight?

Can I love someone new?

Can I?

I want to let go of you.

I want you to let go of me.

You want to keep me.

But all you do is hurt me.

That's not what I want from you.

I want the pain to stop and the tears to end.

I want our love to lay to rest.

I want the past to remain the past.

I want it to stay in history.

I want to move on.

I want to forget you.

I want to forget the hurt, the lies, the pain, the tears.

I want to forget us.

I want to let go.
