Tether

You're looking alive Your smile just seemed much brighter than before I know you’ll stay for awhile You'll never let that window show me more When the window's clouded You can’t see me anymore The time that you doubted me Can't be here like before Sometimes you gotta let it go So you can feel much better Before the things that hold you down Become the tether To me is profound the lack of sound While you scream for something more Pressing away as we seal our fate By repeating something more When the window's clouded You can't see me anymore 'Times that you doubted me Can't be here like before Sometimes you gotta let it go So you can feel much better Before the things that hold you down Become the tether In this story I'm the little one The little skinny one, the weaker one On occasion, I am cumbersome In the world that you feel welcome on Maybe you will open up your eyes Putting all the things you fear aside Pull the shades so you can see sunlight Tell the difference between wrong or right, before Sometimes you gotta let it go So you can feel much better Before the things that hold you down Become the tether You're looking alive Your smile just seemed much brighter than before I know you’ll stay for awhile You’ll never let that feeling show me more Sometimes you gotta let it go So you can feel much better Before the things that hold you down Become the tether
