Let Me Be Sad

I'm holding back right now
'Cause 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
'Cause 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?
'Cause I can't tell if it's the end or the beginning
I know I haven't been myself, I'll admit it
And I put up walls, so if I burned any bridges, just know
I'm doing everything I can to try and fix it
But knowing 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
'Cause 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 doing everything I can to try and fix it
But knowing 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 sad even for a little while
Just a chance to catch my breath (catch my breath)
Let me be sad even for a little while
'Cause 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) 'cause 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
