Days gone by reliving the battles I fought last
Time passes by in my mind like the storms
That traveled from distant skies
And the knife that I brandished for years
To bring you anguish and to bring you tears
By way of the voodoo doll on my wall
To make you feel all I felt from my fall

It no longer brings me pleasure
As much as it used to do
I've realized it was just a war
With an idea
And nothing to do with you
I’m letting go

No more blame, baby, I’ll be washing blood from your name
I have learned forgiving one don’t mean that they’ve won
And doesn’t mean I condone what they’ve done
The past it no longer holds me captive
I’m stronger I’m reclaiming my power to recover
Ooh and the burn has subsided memories of your smile
have taken over the dark in my heart

I’ve been silly to play the game
Waiting in vain for me to be satisfied
Woah, it was just a war with an idea
And something I fought inside
I’m letting go

Letting go. I’ll set you free ‘cause now I see.
All this time gave you power over me.

I’m so sorry it took so long just to move on
And finally get back to me
And so here I stand
Come take my hand
I’m ready to love you again
By letting go...

Oh... I’m letting go... oh...
