Emily Elbert - Letting Go lyrics

Our darkness is important, to be treated with respect For us to be reborn, then we must also honor d**h Only illusion keeps us separate, moon in east and sun in west Soon we'll leave these bodies, releasing all that we thought we possessed Letting go, letting go A return to what the soul already knows Through the softened edge of sorrow, though the patches, frays, and pulls With life seeping through the cracks of every fracture, every hole Through what loves and leaves us, though we grieve it, mystery calls us close Finding solace in these bodies, how our heartbeat guides us home Letting go, letting go Learning to embrace the ebb and flow Oh, great spirit Formless dancer Teach us to trust Love beyond fear Oh, i hear your call Through dark and light, our shadows can remind us we're alive Yet our mind's eye takes to worry when the sunset's done each night And just as fire tears through treetops, burning each down to the bone After that tragedy, our sacred earth still remembers how to grow Letting go, letting go Strip the layers so the spirit shows
