[Chorus]
Oh, Geronimo!
Gotta let go
Now you're falling all alone without warning
Now who'll put you to bed
Tell you when to wake up in the morning?
Nobody but you
[Verse 1]
You were sitting in the back row hiding
Just waiting on the world to begin
You were trying to look tied-up, said you're waiting on a friend
Ah, but no one showed--you'd already known
Now you're too tired to pretend
That just one more day will awake some other end
Feel it sinking in?
[Verse 2]
Now every day wanes another war
You're just a little too nice to win
As you fight to force a meager word passed your chin
Any friends, you'd hope, would soon learn to know
They didn't ever really know a thing
And you'll never make a flower bloom by squeezing the stem
Now it's sinking in...
[Chorus]
Oh, Geronimo!
Gotta let go
Now you're falling all alone without warning
Now who'll put you to bed
Tell you when to wake up in the morning?
Nobody but you
[Verse 3]
Will you ever stop believing
You should be getting more from them?
Would you ever believe that the fault could be on your end?
Will you ever stop fearing
That they might never be that way again?
Would you believe that they never were that way to begin?
Will you ever win?
[Verse 4]
Now you find yourself making a new home
With every bucket of sand
As the smoke eats the stress from your lips
To the tips of your hands
Could it be the bonds of freedom
Are just as heavy as wearing a band?
And not every chute opens, but everybody lands...
Best as they can
[Chorus]
Oh, Geronimo!
Gotta let go
Now you're falling all alone without warning
Now who'll put you to bed
Tell you when to wake up in the morning?
Nobody but you
[Chorus]
Oh, Geronimo!
Gotta let go
Now you're falling all alone without warning
Now who'll put you to bed
Tell you when to wake up in the morning?
Nobody but you
