Always on the way out
None the less unheard
Crying out in silence
In so many words
All to close for comfort
What is lead astray
So much the more apparent
Yet so far away

It's been the same now
For so long
Worn to a thread
And just barely holding on

When all is said and done
Trying again is not worth while
Emotions come undone
Time to let go
No matter what they say
It's just the way the story goes
Defeat has had its day
Time to let go

Always on the wrong track
With no end in view
Even so come what may
Fate will follow through

It's been the same now
For so long
Worn to a thread
And just barely holding on

When all is said and done
Trying again is not worth while
Emotions come undone
Time to let go
No matter what they say
It's just the way the story goes
Defeat has had its day
Time to let go
