I'm holding back right now
Cuz I'm numb to what's around
I miss the life I used to have with you right here
Now everything has turned to grey
And I'm blacking out the shades for now

Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Just a chance to catch my breath
Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Cuz it's all that I have left
When all I see are the memories, I don't want to lose a thing
Let me be sad, let me be sad

Can you see it in my eyes I've been distant?
Cuz I can't tell if it's the end or the beginning
I know I haven't been myself, I'll admit it
I put up walls so if I burned any bridges just know
I'm doin' everything I can to try and fix it
But knowin' me I'll probably miss it
These voices get so vicious
Feels like I'm rippin' stitches
I wish some days I could go back
Before life changed it was so fast
That time is gone and I know that
So please

Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Just a chance to catch my breath
Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Cuz it's all that I have left
When all I see are the memories, I don't want to lose a thing
Let me be sad, let me be sad

I'm doin' everything I can to try and fix it
But knowin' me I'll probably miss it
These voices get so vicious
Feels like I'm rippin' stitches
I wish some days I could go back
Before life changed it was so fast
That time is gone and I know that
All that we have is a moment
So please let me be

Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Just a chance to catch my breath
Let me be sad
Even for a little while
Cuz it's all that I have left
When all I see are the memories, I don't want to lose a thing
Let me be sad, Let me be sad

(Let me be sad)
I'm holding back right now
(Let me be sad)
Cuz I'm numb to what's around
I miss the life I used to have with you right here
Now everything has turned to grey
And I'm blacking out the shades for now
