Verse 1
You said you’re building peace you won’t tear apart.
Said you don’t want hands reaching into your heart.
Said freedom’s the ground that you’re standing on now.
And love is a risk you don’t want to allow.
You drew the line, put the lock on the door.
Said you can’t carry weight you’re already at war.
I read every word, every reason you gave.
Didn’t fight it, didn’t beg, I behaved.
Pre-Chorus
You chose your calm, you chose to stay, I won’t be the weight that makes you break.
Chorus
I let it go, I set you free.
From what we were, from what could be.
You chose your peace, I chose to breathe.
I turn around.
I cut the thread.
Verse 2
You said you won’t wear the pain of another life.
Won’t hold the guilt, won’t sharpen the knife.
Said you’re too deep in your own inside war.
To open space for something more.
So I step back, I don’t cross your ground.
I don’t turn boundaries into battlegrounds.
You kept your world exactly the same.
I take my heart back, reclaim my name.
Pre-Chorus
You keep your peace.
I keep my ground.
Two different endings.
No turning around.
Chorus
I let it go, I set you free.
From what we were, from what could be.
You chose your peace, I chose to breathe.
I turn around.
I cut the thread.
Bridge
No hate.
No blame.
No dragging truth through flames.
You made your call.
I'll make mine too.
Two clean exits.
Nothing to prove.
Final Chorus
I let it go, I set you free.
From what we were, from what could be.
You chose your peace, I chose to breathe.
I turn around.
I cut the thread.
