Drive-By Truckers - Tough to Let Go lyrics
[Drive-By Truckers - Tough to Let Go lyrics]
You know the deal, can't change how you feel
But you try anyway
You look for the means to conquer your dreams
But your insides are quick to betray
Know right from wrong but damned to become
Just another bum pacing the floor
Carry the weight of your expectations
Know they won't fit through the door
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore
Unkindness of ravens outside the window
Sound in your head's like a murder of crows
You're wondering where did all
Of the time go?
Cut loose from everything you held close
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore
It's tough to let go but you know
That these things you are holding onto
Are killing you faster than you kill yourself
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
Aces and scars hiding under your sleeve
Goodbyes make you bleed
But you know it's time to cast off apart
And take what you need to
Be part of this life
Take what you need to believe there's
Something more worth clinging to
But, you'll never know till you leave
It's tough to let go it's tough to let go
But you try anyway
You look for the means to conquer your dreams
But your insides are quick to betray
Know right from wrong but damned to become
Just another bum pacing the floor
Carry the weight of your expectations
Know they won't fit through the door
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore
Unkindness of ravens outside the window
Sound in your head's like a murder of crows
You're wondering where did all
Of the time go?
Cut loose from everything you held close
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore
It's tough to let go but you know
That these things you are holding onto
Are killing you faster than you kill yourself
It's tough to let go when you're
Faced but you can't deliver
Aces and scars hiding under your sleeve
Goodbyes make you bleed
But you know it's time to cast off apart
And take what you need to
Be part of this life
Take what you need to believe there's
Something more worth clinging to
But, you'll never know till you leave
It's tough to let go it's tough to let go
