Kid got used to ledges
Desensitized by looking down
Shaped by shaky bridges
He can't turn back now

It's a novel process
A new idea I'm testing out
Used to try to stop it
There's no stopping it now

I used to play to win
Now it's just a joy to play
Somebody deal me in
I could use a little twist of fate

A little less held in my hand
A little less control
I'm in the river at the rivers command
It's a little letting go
Oh
Oh

Up at 7: 30
I'm ringing in by burning out
Such a reckless excess
Just struggling now

It's the myth of progress
I picked a fight to bail you out
Way too late to stop it
There's no stopping it now

I used to play to win
Now it's just a joy to play
Somebody deal me in
I could use a little twist of fate, ah

A little less held in my hand
A little less control
I'm in the river at the rivers command
It's a little letting go
Oh
It's a little letting go
Oh

Once again
I found myself adrift
I laughed
And then I learned to swim

A little less tied to my plan
I let the love take hold
I'm in the river, and I now understand
Can't fight the river, time to let go

A little less held in my hand
A little less control
I'm in the river at the rivers command
Just a little letting go

A little letting go
Just a little letting go
Just a little letting go
