Maybe

I knew I should have let go but my hands only became stronger

Thinking maybe something will change

Like something’s got to give

My mind told me to let go but my hands pulled you back

I got used to the pain and now I can’t turn back

My lips told me to leave but I kept staying for one last kiss

In the moment it felt right but in my mind I knew I was wrong

Maybe tomorrow I will let go

p.s. maybe as a person I will finally accept myself in growth…
