I spent the winter far from home On the the back bench in the freezing cold Distant, but not alone; I'm letting go I'm letting go To carry on in this madness I'm crashing my head into the stereo Dragging myself through the verses, lifting the curses Helping to keep me afloat So don't tell me that I was never meant for this I don't believe in fate, just the moves you make And standing still won't bring you a damn thing I spent the winter far from home On the the back bench in the freezing cold Distant, but not alone; I'm letting go I'm letting go I had some burdens I've been working on for the last couple months or so I go to sleep with these demons yelling and screaming, bartering for my soul "Get a grip" is what they said to me, "Start acting your goddamn age" All I saw was their cobwebs, their hollowed out hearts, And a reason to run away It's been so desolate and empty here like everybody wanted to disappear And I can't say that I blame them: I've been running for the last 2 years And I never said it was easy I never said it was easy, all I said was we would get this right Well maybe not tonight, but I'm hoping we can figure it out in time I never said it was simple never said that I'd live a perfect life But just trust me now when I'm telling you, I'm telling you I'll be alright
