I’ve been treading water ever since my feelings changed
I fell out of order, didn’t feel the same
Looking in the mirror, didn’t recognize my face
The painted on facanes, slipping out of place

I've been trying, trying, trying
To go back to who I was
But, I've been lying, lying, lying
To myself but at what cost

I surrender all control
And everything I think I know
I've been high and I've been low
Swallowed by a black
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le

I'm not giving up, I'm finally letting go

I've been turning metal
Heavy metal into gold
Baptized by the fire, just so I can grow
Pushing out the concrete, pushing like a stubborn rose
Now that I’m in bloom, all my colors show

I've been trying, trying, trying
To go back to who I was
But, I've been lying, lying, lying
To myself but at what cost

I surrender all control
And everything I think I know
I've been high and I've been low
Swallowed by a black
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le (black hole)
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le

I'm not giving up, I'm finally letting go

Now I've got the freedom, no need to be sad
Everything I wanted, I already had
I just didn't know-oh there was an art to letting go
I just didn't know-oh there was an art to letting go
I just didn't know-oh (I just didn't know) there was an art to letting go
I just didn't know-oh (I just didn't know) there was an art to letting go

I surrender all control
And everything I think I know
I've been high and I've been low
Swallowed by a black
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le (let go)
H-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-le

I'm not giving up, I'm finally letting go
I didn't know there was an art to letting go
