If you don't let it go

We don't need to always see
The planets stand in a line
To realize they won't collide
But just pass each other by

Don't force yourself to lie
Don't bottle it up inside

If you don't let it go
Then you'll never know
If you don't hear it out
You let a distance grow

You lie awake with your eyes closed
Holding the pillow tight
You fear so much you'll wake the beast
By the time you get up it's night

I'd like to sympathize
But you won't look me in the eyes

If you don't let it go
Then you'll never know
If you don't hear it out
You let a distance grow
If you don't let it go
Then you'll never know
If you don't hear it out
You let a distance grow

Trust me, I've got your needs
In front of the line
So just let yourself let it go
And I'll be on your side

If you don't let it go
Then you'll never know
If you don't hear it out
You let a distance grow
If you don't let it go
Then you'll never know
If you don't hear it out
You let a distance grow
