"Tough To Let Go" lyrics - DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS

You know the deal, can't change how you feel, but you try anyway
You look for the means to conquer your dreams but your insides are quick to betray
Know right from wrong but damned to become just another bum pacing the floor
Carry the weight of your expectations, know they won't fit through the door

[Chorus:]
It's tough to let go when you're faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore

Unkindness of ravens outside the window
Sound in your head's like a murder of crows
You're wondering where did all of the time go?
Cut loose from everything you held close

[Chorus:]
It's tough to let go when you're faced but you can't deliver
You're not even sure who you are anymore
It's tough to let go but you know that these things you are holding onto
Are killing you faster than you kill yourself

[Chorus:]
It's tough to let go when you're faced but you can't deliver
Aces and scars hiding under your sleeve
Goodbyes make you bleed, but you know it's time to cast off apart
And take what you need to be part of this life
Take what you need to believe there's something more worth clinging to
But you'll never know till you leave

[Refrain:]
It's tough to let go
It's tough to let go
It's tough to let go
