"Let Me Go Before I Break" is a retro-futuristic heartbreak anthem blending modern R&B lyrics with 70s-inspired electronic funk. A smooth yet emotional ride through love, loss, and self-respect. Inspired by the vulnerability of The Weeknd and the groove of Daft Punk, this track tells the story of someone letting go before it’s too late.

Lyrics:

(Intro)
I drank...
to forget something I didn’t wanna lose.
But you were already gone.

(Verse 1)
Took a bottle to my lips,
thought maybe the burn could fix
all the nights you never spoke,
all the love that turned to smoke.

I said things I didn’t mean,
but maybe I did, in between.
You were tired, but never real—
I kept waiting... for you to feel.

(Pre-Chorus)
I gave too much,
you gave too little.
I held the weight,
you held the riddle.

(Chorus)
And I broke—
again, and again.
Holding on
to a one-sided chain.
I wanted a team,
you wanted escape.
So I let go…
before I lost my shape.

(Verse 2)
I talked, I stayed,
I begged, I prayed.
Loved with my eyes closed,
while yours looked away.

We were off beat,
out of sync.
I was drowning
before I could blink.

(Bridge)
You said, “It’s fine,”
but it cut so deep.
You watched me fall,
but didn’t leap.
I had to leave…
to learn to breathe.

(Chorus 2)
Yeah, I broke—
like glass in the rain.
Tried to hold you,
but you loved the pain.
Didn’t hate, didn’t blame,
but I walked away…
to save my name.

(Outro)
I don’t beg,
I don’t wait.
I closed the door
before it turned to hate.

One last drink,
one last song...
and now I’m gone.
