I killed a man tonight,
Witnesses by his side,
All I had to do was say the words,
Let go,

He closed his eyes to rest,
He drew his final breath,
I'm sorry but this is how it works,
Let go,

They told him not to worry,
They'll continue his story,
I told him that he'd fly with the birds,
Let go,

They told him not to worry,
He drew his final breath,
All I had to do was say the words,
Let go.
