Let You Down

Try to make my mind go numb but it won't

Waiting for the words to come but they don't

Pray to God, write it on the walls so they know

Staring at the ceiling, now I'm alone

Didn't have the words, didn't have the courage

But I had to let it out

Like a sink that's overflowing to the brink

I was water on the ground

Can you feel it seeping underneath your skin

Yeah, drowning all around you?

I did my best to put it gently on your chest

And then I let you down

Hands shaped like I'm face to face with a ghost

But your face is a place I rarely go anymore

My eyes try to hide what you already know

This break is the hardest part, lettin' go

Didn't have the words, didn't have the courage

But I had to let it out

Like a sink that's overflowing to the brink

I was water on the ground

Can you feel it seeping underneath your skin

Yeah, drowning all around you?

I did my best to put it gently on your chest

And then I let you down

Can you feel it seeping underneath your skin

Yeah, drowning all around you?

I did my best to put it gently on your chest

And then I let you down

Let you down
