Letting Go

I can’t mend your broken heart
I can’t patch your skinned knees
I can’t control the weather
Or whatever makes certain people mean
I can hold my own in a good fight
I promise to always give you my best
Which may be better than tomorrow
When I have to pass the test

Sometimes there’s too much to hold
When I’m feeling wise and not just old
One thing I’ve learned more than I know
It’s about letting go
Letting go

I compare myself to everyone and I still hate to lose
Wrestle with the devil and end up with the blues
Then it all gets too heavy and I’m crushed by the weight
Stuck where I don’t want to be, know that it’s not you it’s me

Sometimes there’s too much to hold
When I’m feeling wise and not just old
There’s one thing I’ve learned more than I know
I can keep a little grace
Instead of trying to save face
I just roll with the flow
And start letting go, letting go
I try letting go
Letting go
