PLEASE DON’T LET ME GO — Natalia_Rose [INTRO — whispered, haunted club ambience] Please don’t let me go… Please don’t let me go… I know I should leave, But I don’t know how… [VERSE 1] The room is breathing underneath the red lights, Smoke crawling slowly across the ceiling, I keep pretending that I’m finally leaving, But every step away just makes me miss you. Your shadow moves whenever the lights flicker, Like some ghost that I can’t outrun, I know this love was never meant to save me, But losing you feels worse than what you’ve done. [PRE-CHORUS — building] I know I have to walk away, I know there’s nothing left to save, But when the music fades to silence, I still hear you calling my name… [CHORUS — huge melodic hook] I need to let you go! But it’s all I know! I’ve been holding onto something That was never mine to hold! Please don’t let me go! Even if I tell you no, I’m terrified of losing you, But I’m terrified of being alone! [VERSE 2 — darker] The bass keeps shaking through my chest tonight, Red neon bleeding through the smoke and white, Every stranger looks a little bit like you, And every song keeps dragging me back too. Maybe I’m addicted to the damage, Maybe pain became the only thing I trust, Maybe I keep calling this forever Because admitting it’s over means giving up. [BREAKDOWN] (feral scream) I NEED TO LET YOU GO! (angelic siren) Please don’t let me go… (feral scream) I KNOW YOU’RE NOT COMING BACK! (Natalia — fragile) Then why does my heart still wait? [FINAL CHORUS] I NEED TO LET YOU GO! BUT IT’S ALL I KNOW! Every piece of me is screaming That I can’t do this alone! PLEASE DON’T LET ME GO! Even though I know I should… If holding you is killing me, Why does letting go hurt more? [OUTRO — whispered over fading club beat] I need to let you go… But it’s all I know… Please don’t let me go.
