[Intro]
I feel like a runaway, seeing the light of day
For the first time, I'm drawing the line

[Verse 1]
It's hard to care when you know it all
In slow motion, I watch you fall
Like you're blind, thoughts poison the mind
I always bend, when it comes to you
I think you'll change, but you never do
You never do, I enable you

[Chorus]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)

[Verse 2]
I wish that I could say this to your face
Something different, something brave
Wish I would, but I never could
I feel you slowly pulling me in
I try to help, but it's sink or swim
And you're a weight, there's comfort in pain
[Chorus]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
You've drained all the love I had
All I had for you
Yeah, you've drained all the love I had
All I had for you, all I had for you

[Chorus]
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh)
