Letting Go For Dear Life Lyrics

It's all my fault for thinking I could have you once and that's all it would take to fill me up

By now I've tasted everything, but somehow I still hate to see the bottom of my cup

And I've been running longer than an orphan or a battered woman takes to speak their mind

And it might be nice to lose a bit of sleep, but I won't as long as I keep playing into this pride

So now I'm letting go for dear life

It's just one night in stone

I'm giving up and going home one more time

I'm so tired of hiding

Sick of fighting

This sort of thing used to make me late to everything and lately nothing much has changed

Well, I'm still dirty, I still settle, I'm still worried now that it'll always be this way

And why would I meet you in the middle if I've already got a little something on the side?

And I've done everything but please you

Now I'm down on both my knees to look you in the eye

So now I'm letting go for dear life

It's just one night in stone

I'm giving up and going home one more time

I'm so tired of hiding

Sick of fighting

You don't own me

You don't know me

And I don't owe you anything

You don't know me

You don't own me

And I don't owe you anything

And it's so inconvenient, always keeping you a secret

And it's about time that I tell someone

And it might be more than I can pay

But all I know is I can't stay afraid that I won't find something better

You don't own me

You don't know me

And I don't owe you anything

You don't know me

You don't own me

And I don't owe you anything

And why would I meet you in the middle if I've already got a little something on the side?

So now I'm letting go for dear life

It's just one night of peace

I'm giving up and going home one more time

I'm so tired of hiding

Sick of fighting now

I'm giving up and going home one more time

I'm so tired of hiding

Sick of fighting now
