By letting you stay, I'm stealing from myself
Hearing you say
Your ideas are worth more than anyone else's
I can't keep my vibe high
Honey, oh, I feel your pain
But I can't keep up with this life
Living in the shadow of your vein
So, I'm letting you go
Your words they stick like tar on a summer's day
And I've done everything I can to not let them scar
But I always knew that there'd come a day
And maybe I'm not the best
At saying what's on my brain
Oh, you never let me forget that
But I find it especially hard
When I got to do it every damn day
So, I'm letting you go
I'll be okay
I remember how to find my own way
I can do what I want again
Without having to get it approved by you
At the end of each day
If I let you stay
By letting you stay, I'm stealin' from myself
