Back me down from backing up

Hold your breath now it's stacking up

Etched with marks, but I can deal

And you're the problem and you can't feel

Try this on, straitjacket feeling

so maybe I won't be alone

Take back now, my life you're stealing



Yesterday was hell 

But today I'm fine without you

Runaway this time without you

And all I ever thought you'd be

That face is tearing holes in me again



Trust you is just one defense

off a list of others, you don't make sense

Beg me time and time again

to take you back now, but you can't win

Take back now, my life you're stealing



Yesterday was hell 

But today I'm fine without you

Runaway this time without you

And all I ever thought you'd be

That face is tearing holes in me again

but today I'm fine without you

Runaway this time without you

And all the things you put me through

I'm holding on by letting go of you



And when the memory slips away

There will be a better view from here

And only lonesome you remains

and just the thought of you I fear

it falls away



Yesterday was hell 

But today I'm fine without you

Runaway this time without you

And all I ever thought you'd be

That face is tearing holes in me again

but today I'm fine without you

Runaway this time without you

And all the things you put me through

I'm holding on by letting go of you
