lyrics

Does it mean something because it meant something?
Let it go for a while

But you watch it striving to see if it’s surviving
Make a pact: let it lie

More than half awake
Called only to say

You’re apart from feeling
Set adrift on meaning
Let it go for a while

But you won’t see it
Getting hard of hearing
Let it go, call it dying

More than half awake
Called only to say
It’s not enough to stay
If you won’t face the weight

Call it dying
