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.
