Below, you will find the lyrics for Let It Die by 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
Chorus 1
And I had a dream that we were perfect for each other
So sick, drivin' through the suburbs
We're going 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' onto love for life
I think it's time to let it die
Let it die, let it die
Chorus 2
Let it die, let it die
If you lose yourself
You can walk away
Chorus 2
When did you lose the light behind your eyes?
Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
And you're holdin' onto 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 dimmin'
I won't go back, spinnin' around under your spell
On a carousel
I had a dream that we were a beautiful endeavour
Sunset driving through the suburbs
We go no further
Then I hear a voice
And it's askin' 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' onto 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
You can walk away
You let it die, you let it die
When did you lose the light behind your eyes?
Tell me why when there's no more tears to cry
And you're holdin' onto love for life
I think it's time to let it die
