Let It Die lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Toxicity slippin' to my blood stream

I give too much, you suck the life out of me

I fill my cup to drink you into someone else

And I blame myself

And I had a dream that we were perfect for each other

So sick, drivin' through the suburbs

We're goin' further

And I hear a voice

And it says to me

When did you lose the light behind your eyes?

Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry

And you're holdin' on to love for life

I think it's time to let it die

(Let it die, let it die)

(Let it die, let it die)

If you lose yourself (Let it die)

You can walk away (Let it die)

(I think it's time)

When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)

Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry

And you're holdin' on to love for life

I think it's time to let it die

Not high for this, your heart has reached its limit

A counterfeit and now the lights are dimming

I won't go back, spinnin' around under your spell

On a carousel, oh

I had a dream that we were a beautiful endeavour

Sunset driving through the suburbs

Oh, we go no further

Then I hear a voice (I hear a voice)

And it's askin' me (And it's askin' me, yeah)

When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (When did you lose, behind your eyes)

Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry (Oh)

And you're holdin' on to love for life

I think it's time to let it die

(When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)

(When you're holdin' on for life; let it die, let it die)

If you lose yourself (Let it die)

You can walk away (Let it die)

Oh, you let it die, oh, you let it die

When did you lose the light behind your eyes? (Behind your eyes)

Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry

And you're holdin' on to love for life

I think it's time to let it die
