I remember it vaguely at the borders of our yard
Reaching down to drink from our creek
Dark-voiced shadowed beast at the gallows of our willow trees
And when it spoke, it was time to hold my peace
But by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
And by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
"But you were always scared with the demons in your eyes
Well, you brought 'em here when you laid back there
In my bed of a thousand lies
Like a dog in the night, can you run straight through your fright?
I'm still alive
I'm still alive"
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
But by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
And by the time you left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
Singing Oh! Let him go
