lyrics

Hey there, I haven't seen you in a while
Without a stumble in your footstep, hazy eyes, a vacant smile
It's nice to see you not make such a scene
I really wish you'd be more careful, but you don't know what "careful" means

"Woah, slow down now! Let's pump the brakes."
Well, frankly my friend it's a little too late
To say that you're sorry
I'm sorry, but the damage is done

Watching as you kill yourself
You drag me into your own hell with you
And I just can't say no
I'm sorry this went how it did
But I've got nothing left to give to you
I've gotta let you go, gotta let you go

You find yourself again swimming at the bottom of another bottle
Did she put you in?
It's no less than you deserve, and no more than I'd expect
And you know I've never been one to second guess
The pity party that you threw for yourself was a smashing success
You're a smashing success
The moment I knew I could never believe a word you said

Watching as you kill yourself
You drag me into your own hell with you
And I just can't say no
I'm sorry this went how it did
But I've got nothing left to give to you
I've gotta let you go, gotta let you go

You just never stop
And I'm ready to drop
And this is what you wanted

Watching as you kill yourself
You drag me into your own hell with you
And I just can't say no (To hell with you)
I'm sorry this went how it did
But I've got nothing left to give to you
I've gotta let you go, gotta let you go

Watching as you kill yourself
You drag me into your own hell with you
And I just can't say no
I'm sorry this went how it did
But I've got nothing left to give to you
I've gotta let you go, I've got to let you go
