I've been holding on so long
to shards of broken dreams
cutting myself on memories
that want to fade away
I've been holding on so tight
to unfulfilled desires
my grip is numb, I'm losing it
there's no flame in my fires
every night I walk away again
in my mind
every night I try to make ammends
in my mind
every night I wake up wanting more
in my mind
every night I break down the door
in my mind
and in the morning light I lose focus
rushing through the daywork to survive
success is a false god easily mistaken
for fulfillment and being alive
every night I feel a little more
in my mind
every night I give a little more
in my mind
every night I dream a little more
in my mind
every night I cry a little more
in my mind
and I realize that holding on
to clouds of dreams that are now gone
is one good way to get nowhere
show me the way out of here
obstacles I create every night
walls I cary around every day
my smile might fool most of you
but there's no laughter in my play
I've got to give it all away
I've got to come out to play
I've got to release my love
to find all I'm dreaming of
every night I feel a little more
in my mind
every night I give a little more
in my mind
every night I dare a little more
in my mind
every night I share a little more
in my mind
the touch of your hand could be
the first step back for me
open wide and let me in
embrace me and all I've been
you can have it all tonight
you can make it all alright
I no longer want to be numb
ready or not here I come
the letting go is coming
the letting go is coming
the letting go is coming
The Letting Go Is Coming
(Every Night)
