[Verse 1]
If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go
Surrender, dislocate

[Verse 2]
If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay, see you break, break away
Into the night, through the rain
To the half light, through the flame

[Verse 3]
If I could, through myself, set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away, see you break, break away
Into the light, through the day
Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo!
Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo!

[Chorus]
So let it go, uh huh, and so fade away
To let it go, uh huh, and so fade away
Wide awake, I’m wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh no, no, no
I'm not sleeping, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 4]
If they should ask, well maybe
They’d tell me what I would say
True colours fly in blue and black
Blue silken sky and burning flag
Colours crash, collide in bloodshot eyes

[Verse 5]
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go
This desperation, separation
Condemnation, resignation
In temptation, isolation
Desolation, isolation

[Chorus]
Let it go, uh huh, and so fade away
To let it go, uh huh, and so fade, fade, fade away
Ooh
Oh
Not fade away, hey, hey
Not fade away, no
No, no, not fade away, ah

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Wide awake, I'm wide awake, yeah
Wide awake, I'm wide awake
Wide awake, oh, I'm not sleeping
Oh no, no, no
I'm not sleeping, no, no

[Outro]
Come on down, come on down
Come on down, sing it
Come on down
