So what hurts you more in the end?

Waiting around for something that makes you whole again?

Or letting go, when it'll kill you inside because you don't want to let go?

Because it's killing me, the unknown.

And still I can't let go

I can't let go.

I'm trying but I can't keep you out of my head

I've tried but I can't get these feelings to stay dead.

I've tried to move on, to walk away, to let go

But something in my soul, it always tells me no.

And I can't let go.

I can't let go.

I wish I could stop it, just turn it off like a switch

Oh but what's inside can be such a bitch

You haunt my dreams but I never see the ending

It's hard to be strong when you need so much mending.

And still I can't let go.

I can't let go.

I've tried what I can to fill the void, the emptiness inside

The loneliness, the hopelessness, the darkness in my mind

I can't find my way out of this on my own

Because despite it all, you still feel like home. 

So I can't just let go.

I can't let go.

I can't let you go though you seem to have let me go

But I can't walk away, my soul screams no

Even though you broke my heart

It's still yours, every little part

So I can't let go.

I won't let go.
