It's been long and it's been hard
It's been cold and it's been dark
But you're breathing still

The cat's been out for sometime now
They always seem to find a way out
And never get back in
And you don't want to let go
Of what you've held for so long
But it'll be better this way

You second guess who you've loved
You second guess who you trust
Especially yourself

And all those times you were running around
Having dreams of settling down
Now you'd kill anything to get it back

And you don't want to let go
Of what you've held for so long
But it'll be better this way
And you don't want to let go
Of what you've always known
But it'll be better this way

So go on and let go
Save yourself
No more hanging around
