  • When you were standing in the wake of devastation
    When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
    And with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now
    You were there impossibly alone.

    Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
    You build up hope but failure's all you've known
    Remember all the sadness and frustration
    And let it go, let it go.

    And in the burst of light that blinded every angel
    As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
    You felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space
    No one there to catch you in their arms

    Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
    You build up hope but failure's all you've known
    Remember all the sadness and frustration
    And let it go, let it go.

    Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
    You build up hope but failure's all you've known
    Remember all the sadness and frustration
    And let it go,

    Let it go
    Let it go
    Let it go
    Let it go

    Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
    You build up hope but failure's all you've known
    Remember all the sadness and frustration
    And let it go, let it go. Writer/s: BRAD DELSON, CHESTER CHARLES BENNINGTON, DAVE FARRELL, JOSEPH HAHN, MIKE SHINODA, ROBERT G. BOURDON
