Let It Go

This will never be as good as 
the classic to live and let die
but to let it go I will try
mama I aint calling you out
I know... I did say goodbye
many love ones almost never
get that chance
however it kind of got me thinking
who am I kidding
I was so use to living in confined space
that it eroded my mind's thinking spaces
it was not always things within my control
I sucked at letting it go
did I ever learned from my failures?
of which it was a lot at times
enough to let you go out of your mind
while I'm awake
you have no trouble sleeping
I guess when a heart breaks
it don't breakeven
praying to a god 
I don't believe in
I've been running
trying to be one who sees
I've working on salvation 
out on my knees
trying escape damnation
it is something to look into 
when I cross that bridge
if time could be frozen
I'll keep it in the fridge
to melt slowly to moments 
that's enjoyable
moments before the fall
end up in that deafening silent
panic stricken call
then there the is regret 
for not letting go...
