Give 'em up let 'em go,
Will follow, won't let him follow.
Take a breathe steal away,
Let him play these games play these games.
Can't cry, won't fight,
Not tonight,
Not turning off these lights
Can't shout, can't scream
Thinkin' me,
(But I can let that be)
Holding on letting go,
Why do we do this we don't know.
Stepping out standing up,
Look below,
I'm still hanging no more.
Swept away off my feet,
Can't believe how I've been floating lately
Sense a new avenue,
Know what to do
Just gotta let it take me
On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago
Any place I go you can't run
Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow
Telling stories mine has just begun
Taking over
Leaving no traces
Only smiling faces in the sun
Starting over
Tying up my laces
But the damage is done
Run a wave,
The new rave,
Let it loose and now it's losing me.
Caught between being me or a tragedy (tragedy)
Riding high,
Cloud nine, won't let me through their gates no more,
Found a place, to escape
I'm out the door
(Leaving another girl sore)
Oh you'll be fine, about time
Need someone to hold back my hands
Let me loose, let me fall, they'll understand understand
Heard it once maybe twice,
They'll find you in a ditch somewhere
Spreading wings,
Sliver things are keeping you away from here.
On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago
Any place I go you can't run
Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow
Telling stories mine has just begun
Taking over
Leaving no traces
Only smiling faces in the sun
Starting over
Tying up my laces
But the damage is done
(Shutting you out, shutting you out, shutting you out, shutting you out)
I'm shutting you out,
I'm gonna leave you behind,
One step at a time.
I'm gonna do it cause I said so,
I'm gonna make it cause I said so.
Hey yeah yeah, uh, shutting you out
Hey yeah
Yeah I'm shutting you out
I'm shutting you out
I'm shutting you out
I'm gonna shut you out
On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago
Any place I go you can't run
Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow
Telling stories mine has just begun
Take over
Leaving no traces
Only smiling faces in the sun
Starting over
Tying up my laces
But the damage is done
The damage is done
Damage is done
