You say you never wanna let me go, let me go
You wanna keep me tied up, tied up
You keep persisting and it really shows
Really shows all your [bad word] colors baby

This hesitation with
No need to stay, no need to stay
This world is getting so old, so old
No need for playing
All your foolish games, night and day
Ooh, it's time to let go

Hey, let me go my own way now
And I say
Hey, let me find my own way out

You say you're searching
For a heart of gold, not of stone
My imperfections light up, light up
Pardon me if I'm only flesh and bone
 [bad word] be told, ooh, we're losing control

Hey, let me go my own way now
And I say
Hey, let me find my own way out

We could heal, we could feel
What's so genuine and real
We could heal, we could feel
Just the pain that just won't heal

The said emotion with no devotion
You keep me crawling
On my hands and knees in motion
The said emotion with no devotion
All the clarity of love has [bad word] distortion

Hey, let me go my own way now
And I say
Hey, let me find my own way out
Hey, let me find my own way out
Own way out, hey
