I Let It Go

I was lost, I was hurt, I was trapped out at sea.. I was swimming in circles of circles In the last place I wanted to be. I was holding on to a love I knew so long I thought it must be keeping me afloat Only when I was down, Only when I was drowning Did I finally see your hands on my throat I looked my fear in the eyes! Looked at the water below! I knew I could love or live! I let it go! I let it go! I walked in the dark, I walked in the rain I walked for miles and miles and years, And all I knew was heartache and pain.. I was weighted with the hate I held so long I thought it must be guiding me home.. Only when I was lost, only when I was crossed Did I finally see it left me all alone. I looked my fear in the eyes! Looked at the cold ground below! I knew I could love or die! I let it go! I let it go! Four on the floor! Two in the air! Out of the sand, out of the sky! Into the flow! --- I Let It Go - The Thermals
