Lullaby

I don't want to chain smoke cigarettes by myself anymore Don't want to drink whiskey out of the bottle on the bathroom floor And I don't want to hate somebody I barely know just for loving you Because if I'm honest, I get it, once upon a time I did too This is the sound of letting it go Of learning to sleep when you're sleeping alone Of figuring out how to love when you don't I'm gonna scream, and I'm gonna cry But tonight I won't need the hallway light I'm singing one last lullaby And I'm putting this to bed I built a little altar to all that's left of what we were I lit a few Mother Mary candles that I stole from a Catholic church I let it be, I let it burn, let it go, just like us I said a prayer, I sang a song, and I think Jesus heard me cuss This is the sound of letting it go Of learning to sleep when you're sleeping alone Of figuring out how to love when you don't I'm gonna scream, and I'm gonna cry But tonight I won't need the hallway light I'm singing one last lullaby And I'm putting this to bed I'm putting this to bed I won't lie and say it's easy Even I wouldn't believe me I ain't trying to be mean But thanks for leaving This is the sound of letting it go Of learning to sleep when you're sleeping alone Of figuring out how to love when you don't I'm gonna scream, and I'm gonna cry But tonight I won't need the hallway light I'm singing one last lullaby And I'm putting this to bed I'm putting this to bed I'm putting this to bed
