Instrumental of Our Flag Means Death "Just Let Go"

Just Let Go

A rewrite of Ed's lyrics from S1E10 into a full ballet

Lyrics:

Just hold on
give him a minute
he won't be long 
another hour
I'm sure he'll come
and be in my arms once again

Time slips by
sun comes up
colours fill the sky
you're not here 
and I don't know why
you turned my ship into a wreck

You pull away 
and I pull at the rope
it cuts through my skin 
bleeding down to the bone
the fibers are breaking
the sea's turning red
I'll keep hanging on
I'll keep hanging on by a tread

Should I just let go?

Or maybe the whole thing
was one big mistake
maybe you got held back
something got in the way
if you're back by tomorrow 
I might let you stay
I'll keep the old dog from the door

But every day passes 
without you around
I keep holding on
you keep letting me down
'X' marks the spot
so I thought that you found
but you don't need my heart anymore

Should I just let go?
make myself let go?

I guess after all I should not be surprised
that you packed your things and you left like the tide
I thought that you liked me
but you must have lied
'cause if I made you happy
then why aren't you with me?

One bit of advice
that I got from my pops
steer clear of the lighthouse
don't crack on the rocks
and I hate to say that
the old man was right
but I feel about ready to
curl up and-

What if it's not a death?
what if life just begins again?

Just let go
you can do it
now just let go
cut it loose
and then let it flow
through fingers like silk on the wind

Don't hold on
to these memories
loosen your grip
around your humanity
sing your song
and your reign of terror begins

What Makes You Beautiful (in the style of The 1975)

Soufjan - Applause

Sometimes all your guitars are broken and you need to get a song down. Sometimes that involves scratch vocals and really non-exciting MIDI piano. It happens. 

Right now in songs, I'm focussing very much on the relationships with others, friends and family all included. I'll leave the rest up to people's interpretations. 

Lyrics:

I seem to throw around words like they have no weight 
I know they hit you like a tonne of bricks 
And you're not having any of it 
And rightly so, you let it go 
For fuck sake
Why do I never watch the things I say 
And maybe if I did then I can get you through the day 
Until it's night time 
Then I should leave you to your mind and your devices 

But I can't leave you alone 
'Cus the idea behind the two of us 
Is sat in front of me 
And it's tone is telling me 
That I should do a little more 
To make things how they were before 
But I am stupid, backwards and slow 
So leave me alone to deal with all of this 
And you don't have to take part in any of it 
You don't have to do a single thing that you don't want to do 
But I could use a bit of help to draw a line between the two of us


I Can't Leave You Alone [D-Side]
