I remember it vaguely at the borders of our yard
Reaching down to drink from our creek
Dark-voiced shadowed beast at the gallows of our willow trees
And when it spoke, it was time to hold my peace
But by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
And by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
But you were always scared
With the demons in your eyes
Well, you brought 'em here
When you laid back there
In my bed of a thousand lies
Like a dog in the night
Can you run straight through your fright?
I'm still alive
I'm still alive
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
But by the time it left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
And by the time you left me here
I knew that I could make it out alive
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
Singing: Oh! Let him go
