lyrics

Sometimes it’s hard to let go
And it seems easy to hold on to your grudge
I know it’s hard to let go
But if you wanna meet me there, I’ll meet you there

There’s more than one heart beating in your chest
While you’re sitting in front of your laptop trying to digest
What just came rolling over you
You thought the ocean, it would keep the truth away from your fragile heart
Now reality’s knocking on your door
It’s been so long since you’ve had visitors
The cupboards are dusty, the flat speaks for itself
It has discovered how to swallow up every word you weep
Into the deep dark blue of your nights
While you try to fight the urge to make a move
Man, it’s been more than a decade you been afraid to be proved wrong
Tell me what’s the good in that
Sooner or later you will have to do something about this and maybe realize

Sometimes it’s hard to let go
And it seems easy to hold on to your grudge
I know it’s hard to let go
But if you wanna meet me there, I’ll meet you there

Maybe it’s due to the many backlashes
That made you fall over the years
You say they cost you your belief
And now it’s hard to keep your mind open
You stumble and you fall
Your inner strength is broken
But you know that I can still walk and talk and if I have to
I’ll get into all that water, drink that ocean, make my voice smooth
Then I will walk to you and I won’t have to scream anymore
Let’s hope you hear me on the day I knock on your door
There’s so many things I’ll carry with me
We’ll go to the graveyard together and then we’ll start
To dig up all the hope that you buried in your own kind of war
And in a moment of silence we’ll dust off all of your shelves
If you want to we can dance in the dust of trust
Spin around, spin around

Sometimes it’s hard to let go
And it seems easy to hold on to your grudge
I know it’s hard to let go
But if you wanna meet me there, I’ll meet you there

I’m not sure if we can change how things are going
Should we fail to make amends at least we tried

Sometimes it’s hard to let go
And it seems easy to hold on to your grudge
I know it’s hard to let go
But if you wanna meet me there, I’ll meet you there
