I want to say goodbye Leave all these shadows behind So you need to let me go In life there's no rewind You try to save me from myself But you can't save someone who wants to drown You try to pull me back up But the only way I can see from here is down These cuts are getting too deep And these whispers too loud There's no peace even in sleep And I'm just an empty face in the crowd See I ran out of plastic smiles And misplaced my mask Now my true colors are bleeding through Who knows how long I'll last But promise me one thing Just one thing I ask Let me say goodbye tonight Let me escape what's past

Let me Escape...
I want to say goodbye Leave all these shadows behind So you need to let me go In life there's no rewind You try to save me from myself But you can't save someone who wants to drown You try to pull me back up But the only way I can see from here is down These cuts are getting too deep And these whispers too loud There's no peace even in sleep And I'm just an empty face in the crowd See I ran out of plastic smiles And misplaced my mask Now my true colors are bleeding through Who knows how long I'll last But promise me one thing Just one thing I ask Let me say goodbye tonight Let me escape what's past
