Lithium- don't want to lock me up inside 
lithium- don't want to forget how it feels without 
lithium- I want to stay in love with my sorrow 
oh but God I want to let it go 

come to bed, don't make me sleep alone 
couldn't hide the emptiness you let it show 
never wanted it to be so cold 
just didn't drink enough to say you love me 

I can't hold on to me 
wonder what's wrong with me 

Lithium- don't want to lock me up inside 
lithium- don't want to forget how it feels without 
lithium- I want to stay in love with my sorrow 

Don't want to let it lay me down this time 
drown my will to fly 
here in the darkness I know myself 
can't break free until I let it go 
let me go 

Darling, I forgive you after all 
anything is better than to be alone 
and in the end I guess I had to fall 
always find my place among the ashes 

I can't hold on to me 
wonder what's wrong with me 

Lithium- don't want to lock me up inside 
lithium- don't want to forget how it feels without 
lithium- stay in love with you 
oh I'm gonna let it go
