Only in madness do you find beautiful death
 
 And only in sadness do you feel happy instead
 
 Be careful what you wish for
 
 Because you don’t know the guilt I carried this far all on my own
 
 It’s nothing you want to feel
 
 So let it go
 
  
  Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till it’s not enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go of the both of us
 
 Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till you’ve had enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go or to give you up
  
 
 The silence is one thing that I’ll remember you said
 
 Well it’s better than nothing when nothing’s all that you left
  
 
 Be careful what you wish for
 
 Because you don’t know the guilt I carried this far wasn’t my own
 
 It’s nothing you want to feel
 
 So let it go
  
 
 Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till it’s not enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go of the both of us
 
 Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till you’ve had enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go or to give you up
  
 
 If you need a place to hang your head a shoulder’s better than a knot
 
 You’d be a better memory alive rather than not
 
 If you need a place to hang your head a shoulder’s better than a knot
 
 You’d be a better memory if no one else forgot
 
 So let it go
  
 
 Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till it’s not enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go of the both of us
 
 Don’t wait for the dust to settle
 
 Don’t wait till you’ve had enough
 
 Don’t wait for the world to let go or to give you up
  
 
 I'm not giving up
 
 So don’t you give up
 
 I'm not giving up
 
 So don’t you give up
