There's something so hard about just letting go
Although it's necessary to grow
It's difficult
Like a blitz in the chambers of our mind, we don't feel safe
Looking back on that day as if it was a chafe to our skin that never healed
Leaving behind a permanent scar that all we can do is let it be
The impertinent thoughts we feel looking back on those days with pure guilt
Only more piles up until the structure we built tumbles to no more than rubble
Sitting in place under a cold night we can't stop thinking about the things we most regret
We're haunted by the memories that taunt us regularly
Scarred for what happened
Knowing it's all over is great
But the anguishment of the mental feeling makes you realize that it isn't
You can try and let go but it's as if you're trapped in a mile deep pit of silt
You try to swim to relief but you're pushed down at every chance you get
An odium towards yourself is all you get from this
And though you may stand tall on the podium
You won't forget
