Slipping Away Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here comes the light
That I've desired
Drowning the dark
Why do I feel so terrified?

Sick of this skin
Of choking on pride
Lost in the pressure of the moment
So much pleasure that's been stolen

[Chorus]
Everything I know is slipping away from me
No more resistance I can do without
I can do without
Everything I know is slipping away from me
No more resistance I can do without
I can do without

[Post-Chorus]
Let it go
Start again
Have I ever felt this pain?
Let it go
Start again
Have I ever felt this pain?
[Verse 2]
Here comes the light searching for me
Drowning out the darkness that I live inside
Why do I try to hide?
Will I let it break me open?
There's a violence to this growing
Love tear me apart, tear me apart, tear me apart
Tear me apart, tear me apart, tear me apart, tear me apart

[Chorus]
Everything I know is slipping away from me
No more resistance I can do without
I can do without
Everything I know is slipping away from me
No more resistance I can do without
I can do without

[Bridge]
Slipping away
Slipping away

[Post-Chorus]
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go
Start again
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go
Start again
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
I can let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go
Start again
I can let it go, let it go, let it go

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
