Don't Let Me Go (song #109)

Don’t Let Me Go

Projecting 

Everything I keep 

Rejecting 

On to you

It seems my demons still have work to do 

Expecting

Everything to change

Neglecting

Promises

That I made when we were kissing

Don’t let me go

Even when I’m walking (pulling?) away

(Even) when you don’t want me to stay

You don’t let me go

Wondering

If Im alone in this

Thundering

All at you

When I don’t know what else to do

Numbering 

Every flaw in my lines

Shuddering

At the thought

Of all the strings I’ve tied into knots

Don’t let me go

Even when I’m walking (pulling?) away

(Even) when you don’t want me to stay

You don’t let me go

Even these words might be me hiding from the truth

Still even at my worst I know I’m lost without you

When it’s all said and done I’m just trying to break through

We both have walls that keep me from you

I just need to break through

To you

Don’t let me go

Even when I’m walking (pulling?) away

(Even) when you don’t want me to stay

You don’t let me go
