Balancing on a wary line
Too scared to trust you and jump down
I'll keep my status quo up here
Won't let anybody come near
I'll fix it on my own
Twenty-nine years I've been the same
Tryin' so hard to run from shame
But how long can I keep up the pace
To fool myself I don't need grace
Will you be there to catch my fall
Need to be sure you hear my call
Darkness surround me
And I don't know why it's so hard to let go
Why it's so hard to let go
I know I'll meet you down the line
You ask why I wasted my time
And I'll say I didn't know better
But the truth is I was weak and scared
Afraid of the blame
Twenty-nine years I've been the same
Tryin' so hard to run from shame
And I will not keep up the pace
To fool myself I don't need grace
Will you be there to catch my fall
Need to be sure you hear my call
Darkness surround me
And I don't know why it's so hard to let go
Why it's so hard to let go (2x)
Yeah
Hard to let go
Hard to let go, ooh
Why it's so hard to let go
