Let me go

Lyrics:

My body aches before the day begins,
Another breath, another loss within.
Hands are shaking, nerves are worn thin,
I wake up tired of the skin I’m in.

Doctors’ words echo in my head,
“Just keep going” is all they said.
But hope feels heavy, faith feels slow,
I smile for them, but I’m hollow.

Let me go, I’m barely holding on,
Every night feels endlessly long.
I give my strength, they take it all,
I’m still standing, but I’m falling down.

Mind grows dark where thoughts don’t rest,
Anxiety sleeps inside my chest.
They sell me time I’ll never own,
A life on lease, a debt on bones.

This system feeds on broken men,
Turns our pain into profit again.
We trade our health for borrowed pay,
Just to survive another day.

Let me go, I can’t pretend,
That this road won’t ever end.
I bleed my youth into their gold,
They stay warm while I grow cold.

I don’t dream anymore…
I just endure.
Every promise feels like a lie,
Every reason asks me why.

Let me go… there’s nothing left,
Just empty lungs and silent breaths.
I’m so tired I can’t feel pain,
Only weight I can’t escape.
No light waits at the end I know,
Just endless night—
So let me go.
