Let Me Go

[Verse 1]

Am I the snake inside your garden?

The sugar in your tea?

The knock upon your back door?

The twist that turns your key?

Am I the sweat you feel on your hand?

The shadow on your face?

The tune inside your head

That put you here in the first place?

Well, I don't wanna be

I don't wanna be

I don't wanna be your sweet temptation

Don't wanna be your new sensation

It's such a delicate distraction

With just a hint of satisfaction

[Chorus]

Look me in the eye and let me know

If you can't love me, then let me go

Let me go

Let me go

Let me go

Oh

[Verse 2]

Do you try to stay suspended

In your deepest fantasy?

After night has ended

The scent of mystery

The power of suggestion

Tangles up your soul

A neutral state between love and hate

Is bound to take its toll

Well, I don't think you know

I don't think you know

I don't think you know about the screaming

You don't understand the meaning

You could trade it in for laughter

To keep your happy ever after

[Chorus]

Look me in the eye then let me know

If you can't love me, then let me go

Let me go

Let me go

Let me go

Oh

[Bridge]

Baby, in your ivory tower

Do you sleep tight, dream fight?

Baby, does it whet your appetite?

Maybe in your darkest hour

Am I the keeper of your beast?

Well, I don't wanna be

I don't wanna be

So let me go

Let me go

Oh

[Instrumental Outro]
