Intro I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream But I just can't seem to get on my feet So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go I'll hope someday that you will know Verso 1: I sit back and think about the life I've had So much to change but I can't go back What happened to that kid? He used to play in the street I think about that kid, he looked just like me Had a smile, had a home, never grow old When we grow up, do we have to grow cold? Spent his whole life looking for salvation Never realized nobody could save him So all these words for what they're worth I know it's hard, I know it hurts And we laugh at the past 'cause it's how we learn Welcome to the world, now let's watch it burn I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream But I just can't seem to get on my feet So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go I'll hope someday that you will know You gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go I hope someday you'll understand Verso 2: Sometimes it's hidden, wish that I could see A future picture of an older me Would he be smiling and would he be happy? Would he say a thousand words while looking right at me? Is he different or the same old me? Is he still chasing after these same old dreams? I know that I'll never reach perfection At least he could point me in the right direction Some grow old, and some grow cold They'd sell their souls for a heart of gold God only knows where the hell would I be If I had the old me sitting beside me I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream But I just can't seem to get on my feet So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go I'll hope someday that you will know You gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go I hope someday you'll understand No one knows what it's like to be alone Please, tell me, is anyone out there? No one knows what it's like to be alone Please, tell me, is anyone out there? ( ) I just want a life that seems a little better than a dream
