Let Me Go 02:59
We're hangin' out all the time You beat my heart like a crime I never know exactly what you have in mind You say you don't mean to mess with my head But, we spend the nights talking in bed How can you keep me, keep on, hanging on a thread? Won't ya kiss me slow or kill me quickly Give me hope or give me misery Oh... let me know... Won't ya tie me down or cut the cord Well, what the hell you waitin' for Hello??? Let me know... or Let me go I've seen the jesters tell you lies Makin' you laugh makin' you cry I'm always picking up the pieces left behind Am I a Pawn? Am I a King? Have you got horns? Have you got wings? Or is my love, just rotted on the vine? Won't ya kiss me slow or kill me quickly Give me hope or give me misery Oh... let me know... Won't ya tie me down or cut the cord Well, what the hell you waitin' for Hello??? Let me know... or Let me go Let me be Can't you see me hanging on? I can't play this game for long... Won't ya kiss me slow or kill me quickly Give me hope or give me misery Oh... let me know... Won't ya tie me down or cut the cord Well, what the hell you waitin' for Hello??? Let me know... or Let me go Just let me go... Let me go... Let me go... Let me go.

about

As the Follow Up to their debut single ‘Deserve’, ‘Let Me Go’ cements Baron and Kadish’s musical style with the continued use of organic instrumentation throughout an electronic, vocoder laden soundscape. The lyrical theme is universal: a guy falls in love with his best friend. She sees him only as a friend. It’s killing him. Everybody has been through this at some point. The song is emotional and provides a good release when it gets to the end choruses. It’s piano based but also futuristic and modern

This song is about a platonic friendship between a man and a woman in which the man is secretly in love with the woman. He is always there for her as a crying shoulder when her heart is shattered, however; he has decided that he can’t continue on with the existing dynamic. He pleads to be set free, while deep down, he still holds out hope that their friendship will blossom into more. In high school, girls that Kadish knew, always thought of him as the “nice guy / friend”. No matter how many times their hearts were broken, by guys who treated them like garbage... no matter how many times he was there to pick up the pieces, he seemed to be put in the “friend zone”.

It’s like if he were a superhero his power would be “romantic invisibility”, because no matter what he did they just couldn’t see him in that “boyfriend light”.
