Phantogram - Let Me Go Lyrics






This golden glow
Is not happiness
It's the dust that you kicked on my face
Before saying goodbye

Oh memory
Won't you speak to me?
Can you show me the boat in my soul
That can sail me back home

Let me go

You can shave me down
You can clean my teeth
Get me ready to meet all the people
That I thought I knew

But my memory
Has mistaken me
Can't remember the last time
I felt so incredibly young

So let me go

And I try
To leave
But my bones,
Just won't agree

And I try,
To believe
You should try
Set me free

Let me go

    Who else didn't notice this wasn't a "video" for the first 3 mins?

    M.... B....

    Deep man
    Deep

  4. R.... E....

    Its like a scary movie. I play it on repeat.

  5. V.... C....

    This song makes me visualize a very dark, creepy and sad indie video game.

    A city where it’s always night and gloomy. A lonely urban explorer trying to escape this dead city but can’t…they are deep secrets on why escape is impossible and why it’s always night. Eyes are always on you but you can’t see them directly, only your peripheral vision. Going mad because you see no one else but yourself, yet, you know you’re not alone. Whispers around you, footsteps behind you, eyes on you…
    The truth is something that haunts this abandoned city and the people who come to explore to never leave.

    This was the polite version of my feelings back in 2015 when someone i was close to wouldn't go away when at that time I wanted her to. Heartbreak is a bitch, wounds heal when that person tries to stick around and despite what your feeling you yourself cant let go. Sorry for the rant, this song takes me back.

    G.... F....

    *wounds dont heal when that person sticks around

  7. G.... B....

    They mastered the art of staying still

    Feels as if i came across Phantogram and their music at a perfect period in my life where one has to work with the universe and shine through the troubles, the hurt and the memories head-on. Amazes me how many times I can repeat one of their songs over & over again and feel something different inside each time. Can’t wait for what the future holds them 🌟

    M.... R....

    Same here

    "Let Me Go"

    This golden glow
    Is not happiness
    It's the dust that you kicked on my face
    Before saying goodbye

    Oh memory
    Won't you speak to me?
    Can you show me the boat in my soul
    That can sail me back home

    Let me go

    You can shave me down
    You can clean my teeth
    Get me ready to meet all the people
    That I thought I knew

    But my memory
    Has mistaken me
    Can't remember the last time
    I felt so incredibly young

    So let me go

    And I try
    To leave
    But my bones,
    Just won't agree

    And I try,
    To believe
    You should try 
    Set me free

    Let me go

  30. S.... M....

    what is it about this song that makes me press repeat

  31. m.... s....

    This song nestles me in the darkness. It reflects everything I feel at the moment.

  32. W.... ....

    Phantogram deserves so much more fame, then again I suppose the masses can't comprehend or accept music that is a little different in the best of ways. They're f'in great! Idk about you guys but I also like Lorde she's very talented for her age and has similar messages that are far deeper than mainstream music. Do you guys like Lorde?

    W.... ....

    WilliamR I do, love her first album with my soul and a time after I found Phantogram and fall totally for them, their voices and sounds are magical and so amazing!!!

    W.... ....

    WilliamR agree completely if people gave them a chance oh well there missing out

    W.... ....

    I found them cuz of lorde

    W.... ....

    Thank you for reminding that Lorde made some beautiful music as well!

  33. J.... S....

    Before they sucked

  34. S.... C....

    So good

  35. M.... L....

    goes to those places you want to forget, places you wished i had the words, Let me go. Thanks

  36. V.... M....

    müthiş ya

  37. L.... Z....

    let me go... :(

  40. h.... h....

    This song is like a breath of fresh air ❤️

  41. A.... E....

    mad for this music. my right-now fave group.

  42. V.... Y....

    Abi bu harika grup neden bu kadar az dinleniyor? :(

  43. A.... Y....

    This is...beautiful
    Still without knowing why do people think Justin Gaybier is awesome when there is this music, i mean, music

    A.... Y....

    Yes I know, and everybody can hear whatever they want,but the thing here is that most of the people loves to follow stereotypes and all of us have to be different, to trascend, well that´s my opinion, I want that for my life

    A.... Y....

    +Alejandra Yunuen just because that's what you want for your life doesn't mean what other people choose to listen to or what 'stereotypes' they fall into make them any less of a person. You come off as if you think your superior to someone who listens to JB when the reality is its just your opinion.

    A.... Y....

    I do not feel superior

    A.... Y....

    You can't compare these two artists to a mere entertainer.
    You're comparing fine art to something manufactured to be tossed out like yeterdays garbage.
    Phantogram is a different category and level of music that will continue to be cherished years to come.

    A.... Y....

    I know, and i wasn´t trying to compare them, i just thinked about that, this is the reeal music, man

  44. K.... ....

    Damn this song is a great.

  45. M.... J....

    Damn..😞 too good..

  46. t.... g....

    this song is something else

    t.... g....

    +trixi golding takes u away to no where

  47. L.... L....

    So sad, makes me think of my grandmother and my father who both died of Alzheimer's Disease where they both did not fully recognize me near the end or anyone else but rather seemed to have sorta childlike fun. Very sad disease and this song takes me there every time.

    L.... L....

    +Laura Lee Blessings from México

    L.... L....

    sending you a hug for your strength through that. <3

    L.... L....

    my grandma lived 16 years with alzheimer.. i grow mature from childhood while watching her getting more disconnected day by day... kinda proved me that there is no individual 'after life' also the loneliness is something that no one can avoid

    L.... L....

    You and anyone else concerned about Alzheimer's and how to avoid it should learn to take care of your sleep! Here's Matthew Walker on the Joe Rogan Experience with more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwaWilO_Pig. Have a good day!

  48. E.... F....

    Great Emotional Melody.. Very Nice!!

  49. J.... V....

    heard of this band through an ex. think of her whenever I hear them.. wish I could let go of the memories

    J.... V....

    +Jonathan - Been there... hang in there. It does get easier, but it takes way too long sometimes.

  50. r.... ....

    I think it's a tough choice between this and Fall In Love for their best song, both are great. I especially like the drums on this

    r.... ....

    +russelsheartinacage I personally love this song and their "Howl At The Moon" is fantastic too.

    r.... ....

    +silentthriller black out days on repeat! hundreds of repeats xD

    r.... ....

    +russelsheartinacage WARNING SPOILERS!!

    fall in love, black out days, let me go, howl at the moon, turning into stone, you are the ocean, as far as i can see, the day you died, celebrating nothing, when i'm small

    check them all out!!!!!!!!!!!

    that's momaluigi to you.
    wheeze.

    r.... ....

    And cruel world and howling at the moon AND AND AND !!! So many. Phantogram is AMAZING

    r.... ....

    You Are The Ocean is my favorite from this album. I also this song as well as As Far As I Can See. The later acoustic version is great.

  51. T.... R....

    So good...ohhh, so good! Chills

  52. P.... G....

    Uploaded a day before my first love came into my life.

    P.... G....

    Pedro Matias wow, so many years ago, we had a child together, and we split. How life can change but one song can put you back in those shoes so many years ago. I’ll always miss my youth.

    P.... G....

    this song is about drug addiction not human relationships

  53. I.... ....

    Absolutely amazing.

  54. i.... s....

    This is musical therapy at it's finest. Enchanting, sad, beautiful and deep all at once. I don't know whether to smile or cry.

    i.... s....

    exactly!!

    i.... s....

    it's about drug addiction, like most of their songs

    i.... s....

    This Song Is So Deep , It Blows Me Away, That Phantogram Is Not More Popular

    i.... s....

    Who is this?

  55. j.... a....

    Oh memory
    Won't you speak to me?
    Can you show me the boat in my soul
    That can sail me back home~

  56. J.... G....

    I don't want to let you go though

    J.... G....

    but I want to be free, and at the same time not cause you any pain, so please, let me go 

    J.... G....

    haha, right?!?!

    J.... G....

    He has a right to hold on if that is what he believes is right for him to do. He has a right to torture himself if you are what he believes in, and besides...maybe your idea of freedom is just another form of slavery anyways.

  57. M.... G....

    So addicted to this song.

  58. m.... ....

    painful happy tears

  59. j.... ....

    what the fuck is hipster anyway?  that term is used more loosely than any other generalization im aware of.  get some new material fuckheads.

    j.... ....

    @jamieirl It's what people call you anytime you like something you think is cool.

    j.... ....

    No it's what people call basic people who say things like "you probably haven't heard of them but I like (enter super eccentric thing nobody cares about)."

    j.... ....

    (pardon typos, i seldom proof-read youtube comments) My understanding, and I could be wrong about its origin, is that it's actually a term that was assigned to bourgeois white people, primarily in New York City and Chicago, who would frequent predominantly black night clubs i.e. the Cotton Club.Stepping outside of what is culturally expected of them to become engaged in a voyeurism of a culture that felt, possibly, more authentic than their own. This definition is blurring a bit into the definition of the flaneur (but how separate are they, truly, the contemporary 'hipster' in the colloquial sense may be synonymous with 'flaneur' of the past. Despite the fact that I could be entirely wrong and that there is a little ipse dixit happening on my part, in defining hipster and one's discontent with being assigned that identity has several issues: Is it pejorative? hat and who makes it this way? does it make you feel less authentic than other people, who I can assure you are equally as inclined to be attracted to things that are popular despite their seemingly 'unpopularness' if you will excuse my employment of that not-word. In the end I think that going back to the genesis of the word and it's purpose is important. What does it mean to be wholly authentic (who you are, how you express yourself, and what you are interested in as opposed to what your generation is interested in (if there is a difference at all between those two things)) now everybody say LOVE!

  60. b.... c....

    Awesome music

  61. m.... ....

    Hipster side of youtube.

  62. D.... S....

    This song makes you feel heavy in the heart and light in the spirit. I love it so much.

  63. K.... ....

    ya boy ; )

  64. m.... p....

    Dankkkkk

  65. Q.... ....

    The only painless love there is.

  66. j.... ....

    so.... Why hasn't this been on FIFA yet?

  67. �.... ....

    she's physically beautiful as well.

  68. �.... ....

    the "underground" alternative/indie rock music is high quality and very talented. had this music come out 20 some odd years earlier it would be top 40 as people had an appreciation for good music back then. it's only underground because the music industry doesn't like real music ..... and this IS real music. it's pretty and sweet. the fact that it's "underground" speaks volumes of how unevolved our "culture" is nowadays.

  69. �.... ....

    love like any emotion is fleeting. we've been led to believe that love of a romantic nature is the ultimate human experience. lol it's not. this tune is nice.

  70. P.... ....

    Any cute girls in south florida like this kinda music?

  71. s.... ....

    there still is hope for music..... : )

  72. N.... R....

    :) so awesome.

  73. c.... ....

    This reminds me of Keane - Untitled 1

  74. a.... r....

    Man the first time I heard this song I jizzed my pants..... her voice is so beautiful.

  75. C.... T....

    Irrevocably addictive, GO PHANTOGRAM!!!!!!!!!!

  76. D.... H....

    ha.haha.ha. clever one here ;)

  77. D.... H....

    You now what kind of fan?
    A late one...lol jk I had to say that

  78. M.... ....

    I always imagine that the dude in the band has (secretly?) been in love with her for the last 15 years.

  79. V.... V....

    let me go...............

  80. a.... ....

    What beautiful song.

  81. B.... ....

  89. C.... S....

    the exact same thing happened to meeee lol!

  90. x.... ....

    What a wonderful discovery :)

  91. a.... ....

    I am in that part of youtube where everyone comments they are on that part of youtube, and that they are high. Seriously I love this music but is there a need to post "I am high" on every video? I blush when I imagine myself saying the same, it is so childish.

  92. e.... r....

    This band is just perfect!

  93. c.... ....

    Thanks to my ex beloved one for showing me this amazing band. Now we don't even communicate, but I still listen to Phantogram. Music is truly the only thing that's permanent.

  94. C.... ....

    It's Perfect, but sad. Let you go..

  95. M.... ....

    Where is the "repeat" button?
