Is it any wonder - Keane

I, I always thought that I knew
I'd always have the right to
Be living in the kingdom of the good and true
And so on, but now I think I was wrong
And you were laughing along
And now I look a fool for thinking you were on my side

Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?

Sometimes
It's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Well, maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand
But sometimes
I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme, a sound bite

Is it any wonder that I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh, these days, after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?

Nothing left beside this old cathedral
Just the sad lonely spires
How do you make it right?
Oh, but you try

Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh, these days, after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?

Everybody's changing - Keane

You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it
I don't see how you can
You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in your eyes
Says, “Everybody's changing
And I don't know why”


So little time
Try to understand that
I’m trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same

You're gone from here
And soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
Cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right

So little time
Try to understand that
I'm trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same

So little time
Try to understand that
I'm trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same

Everybody's changing
And I don’t feel the same

Time to go - Keane

Now, picturing a scene
Seen it all before
We drink, we drink a little much
We drink a little more
To shake off the nerves
And take off the edge
And now, is there any way back home?

Seen it all before
And I know the signs
We drink, drink a little much
To stimulate the mind
Now it's two hours to go
Insult everyone that we know
Now it's such a long way home

Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left

I don't wanna spoil your night
I don't wanna hurt your pride
But maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time

Now, eating from your hand
Laugh at every line
Soon, losing track of you
Losing track of time
Now it's dead on the dance floor
And nobody's laughing anymore
Have I become a tiresome bore?

Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left

I don't wanna spoil your night
I don't wanna hurt your pride
But maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time to go

Where there's nowhere to hide
From what's broken inside
A fault line rips right open
Under the wide, wide ocean's tide
Under the wide, wide ocean

Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time we went
You're making a spectacle
Maybe it's time we left

I don't wanna spoil your night
I don't wanna hurt your pride
Maybe it's time to fly
Maybe it's time
Maybe it's time to go
Maybe it's time

Thin air - Keane

I can't keep up
You're moving too fast
Deep holes and darkness
These things will part

Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air

Trust me, I want you
Just as you are
Don't change the things you do
Just stay as you are

Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air

Dark times and strange places where
When I came to see you
You had nothing to say
I stood right beside you
You turned the other way
I reached out to hold you
And found nobody there
You turn into air

Snowed under - Keane

There's a cold voice on the air
You've been looking everywhere
For someone to understand your hopes and fears
Well, I've thought about that for many long years

So I walk through Mansers Shaw
I don't see you anymore
We love to think about the way things were
But the time has come and I'm glad it's over

I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day

Now you think that you're alone
So you make your way back home
I'd love to greet the weary traveler
But your time has gone and I'm glad it's over

I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day

I don't know why I waste my time
Getting hung up about the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day
You know sometimes I feel like I'm
Getting snowed under with the things you say
When I open my eyes and it's a lovely day

Disconnected - Keane

Something's crept in under our door
Silence soaking through the floor
Pinching like a stone in my shoe
Some chemical is breaking down the glue
That's been binding me to you

I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been wrong so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind

Well, I thought that love watched over this house
But you're boarding up the windows now
We've been leaning on each other so hard
Tied so tight we wound up miles apart
Making simple things so hard

I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow

There's an invisible wall between us now
But I've been wrong and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind

I see the landscape change before my eyes
The features I've been navigating by
No, nothing looks the way it did before
I don't know where to look or what to look for

I feel like I just don't know you anymore
But I've been burned and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow

There's an invisible wall between us now
But I've been wrong and I've been down so many times
We walk in circles
The blind leading the blind
We've been disconnected somehow

There's an invisible wall between us now

Wait - Mat Kearney

The wind hit my back, cold as I remember
And caught me off guard, in the middle of december
Sometimes a crowded room can feel the most alone
Sometimes I wonder why I won't pick up the phone when

This wall is glaring and it's too high for me to climb
I've ran and ran and now there's nothing left behind
I see a picture of a broken man inside
I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone
And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone
Together we will fly tonight
And leave all the rest behind
I'll wait for you

These hands can feel like they're not even mine
A tree and a nail and a cry in the night
Sometimes a little step is the greatest divide
Sometimes I feel your breath right at my side when

This wall is glaring and it's too high for me to climb
I've ran and ran and now there's nothing left behind
I see a picture of a broken man inside
I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone
And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone
Together we will fly tonight
And leave all the rest behind
I'll wait for you

Here I am at the edge of the road
One hand on the end of the rope
One crack and it breaks alone
Wondering who's gonna take me home
On my knees when you call my bluff
Begging please from the edge of the ruff
And I know I've had enough, and I know it, and I know it

I see a picture of a broken man inside
I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone
And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone

Wait here, stay here, say you're the only one
I need, I know when I'm holding

Together we will fly tonight
And leave all of the rest behind
I'll wait for you, I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait for you
And I'll wait here, stay here, say you're the only one
I need, I know when I'm holding
I'll wait for you

Friend to a stranger - Emerson Hart

From a friend to a stranger
How’s your life in your current situation?
Did they hold you hostage?
Did they tell you lies?
Just to add to your frustration
Oh, my heart

So you travel all day and you travel hard
On a road to change your life
Not to give it all away but to sing your song
Cause in the end that's when you arrive

Oh, my heart, it brings me
When I hear them call your name

Oh, to see inside myself
Like I can see but no one else
Could ever know
The way we'd end up here

So from a friend to a stranger
How’s your life in your current situation?
Wish you happiness and freedom
And I wish you life
When you reach your destination
Your destination, your destination

All I wanted - Paramore

Think of me when you're out
When you're out there
I'll beg you nice from my knees
And when the world treats you way too fairly
Well, it's a shame I'm a dream

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I think I'll pace my apartment a few times
And fall asleep on the couch
Wake up early, the black and white re-runs
That escape from my mouth

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I could follow you to the beginning
Just to relive the start
Maybe then we'd remember to slow down
At all of our favorite parts

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

Let her go - Passenger

Well, you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies

But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well, you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
Cause you loved her too much
And you dived too deep

Well, you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go
And you let her go
Will you let her go?

Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go

Life's for the living - Passenger

Well, grey clouds wrapped around the town like elastic
Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic
The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain
While launderettes cleaned clothes, high heels rub toes
Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows
Dressed in their suits and their boots, well, they all look the same

I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books and crackling vinyl
And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
“Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living, so live it
Or you’re better off dead”


While the evening pulled the moon out of its packet
Stars shone like buttons on an old man’s jacket
We needed a nail but we tacked it ’til it fell of the wall

While pigeon’s pecked trains, sparks flew like planes
The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains
And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call

And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town
Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown
With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said
“Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living, so live it
Or you’re better off dead”


Well, I’m sick of this town, this blind man’s forage
They take your dreams down and they stick them in storage
You can have them back, son, when you’ve paid off your mortgage and loans
Oh, hell with this place, I’ll go it my own way
I’ll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway
Someday someone must be going my way home

‘Til then I’ll make my bed from a disused car
With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars
And I’ll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread
“Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
You know life’s for the living, so live it
Or you’re better off dead”

“Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living, so live it
Or you’re better off dead”

Holes - Passenger

I know a man with nothing in his hands
Nothing but a rolling stone
He told me about when his house burnt down
He lost everything he owned
He lay asleep for six whole weeks
They were gonna ask his mother to choose
When he woke up with nothing
He said, “I'll tell you something
When you've got nothing
You've got nothing to lose

Now I've got a hole in my pocket
A hole in my shirt
A whole lot of trouble,”
he said
“But now the money is gone
Life carries on
And I miss it like a hole in the head”


I know a woman with kids around her ankles
And a baby on her lap
She said one day her husband went to get a paper
And the mother fucker never came back
Mortgage to pay and four kids to raise
Keeping the wolf from the door
She said, “The wolf's just a puppy
And the door's double locked
So why you gotta worry me for?

Now he left a in hole in my heart
A hole in a promise
A hole on the side of my bed
Oh, now that he's gone
Well, life carries on
And I miss him like a hole in the head”


Well sometimes you can't change and you can't choose
And sometimes it seems you gain less than you lose
Now we've got holes in our hearts
Yeah, we've got holes in our lives
Where we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on

Where we've got holes in our hearts
Yeah, we've got holes in our lives
Where we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on
Said we've got holes in our hearts
Yeah, we've got holes in our lives
Where we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on

Said we've got holes in our hearts
We've got holes in our lives
We've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on
Said we've got holes in our hearts
We've got holes in our lives
We've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on

Said we've got holes in our hearts
Yeah, we've got holes in our lives
Where we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on

Dreamer - Uh Huh Her

You've seen the worst of me now
I'm all alone
See, you lost me somehow
And what we're fighting for is peace
Are you still in love with me
Or someone else?

Well, are you such a dreamer?
Put yourself in my shoes
Careful what you wish for love

I've seen the worst of you too
I let it go
See, because I have to
And when I'm falling on my knees
You'll take my hand in yours
What will be, we'll be

Cause are you such a dreamer?
Put yourself in my shoes
Careful what you wish for love

What's the matter with our ways?
I'm missing something, not to blame
But don't you worry, this will pass
It's only cause my mind's been spinning

No control, I've lost my head
All of this is just beginning
Not enough, it's never enough
I'll only want to keep on dreaming

Cause are you such a dreamer?
Put yourself in my shoes
Careful what you wish for love

Cause are you such a dreamer?
Put yourself in my shoes
Careful what you wish for love

Stop and stare - OneRepublic

This town is colder now
I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move
I'm shaking off the rust
I've got my heart set
On anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself
Counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal
For the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving, but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Can you see what I see?

They're trying to come back
All my senses push
Untie the weight bags
I never thought I could
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run ‘til you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving, but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need

You don't need
What you need
What you need

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving, but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Do you see what I see?

Crying for no reason - Katy B

I push all my problems to the back of my mind
Then they surface in my dreams, they come alive
I sweep all my issues to somewhere I can't find
In hope that I'll forget but there's just so many times

Why can't I be strong and just confront all my fears?
When my fear is hurting you by being sincere
But how many more days can I run, how many years?
Emotions flooding and now it's all seeming so clear

Crying for no reason, feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
Cause I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

I push all my problems to the back of my brain
A darkness deep inside where I just can't find my way
How can I walk with a smile, get on with my day?
When I deceived myself pretending it's all okay

I tried my best to hold it all together, I know
The strings have worn away and now I'm all exposed
I try to hide it all away on top of the shelf
I can lie to everyone but not to myself

Crying for no reason, feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
Cause I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

Forgive me now cause I said that I'll be there for you, care for you
I let you down, I walked away
Cause there were things I couldn't say to you, say to you
I'm breaking now

I burned some bridges down
There must be some way out
The voices speak so loud
Will you forgive me now?

I burned some bridges down
There must be some way out
The voices speak so loud
Will you forgive me now

Crying for no reason, feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
Cause I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

How - Maroon 5

I have been searching for your touch
Unlike any touch I've ever known
And I never thought about you much
‘Til I'm broken down and all alone

Though I don't understand the meaning of love
I do not mind if I die trying
Took it for granted when you lifted me up

I'm asking for your help
I am going through hell
Afraid nothing can save me but the sound of your voice
You cut out all the noise
And now that I can see mistakes so clearly now
I'd kill if I could take you back

But how?
But how?

I can feel it in my guts
What's going on with him now
And don't patronise me with lies
I'm a man, be a woman now

I have been bound by the shackles of love
And I don't mind if I die tied up
Took it for granted when you lifted me up

I'm asking for your help
I am going through hell
Afraid nothing can save me but the sound of your voice
You cut out all the noise
And now that I can see mistakes so clearly now
I'd kill if I could take you back

But how?
But how?
But how?
But how?

Why must we be so ugly?
And please do not think ill of me
Why does the one you love
Become the one who makes you want to cry?
Why?
Why?
Why?

But I don't understand the meaning of love
I do not mind if I die trying
I do not mind if I die trying
I do not mind if I die trying

Welcome to my life - Sunrise Avenue

This is not really me
You're an angel not asking who I am
You understand
That is not really you
You look at me as if I'm something more
Well, dream on

Welcome to my life
You see it is not easy
But I'm doing all right
Welcome to my dream
It's the only one who needs me
And stays right by my side

Welcome to my wonderland
It'll take time to find out where we stand
In all this mess
There was the first day for me too
And I had no guide and I was lost like you
I still am
But it makes me feel alive

Welcome to my life
You see it is not easy
But I'm doing all right
Welcome to my dream
It's the only one who needs me
And stays right by my side

Once upon a time there was a guy
Who thought life is a joyride of ladies and red wine
He was so sure he'd get the prices and the glory with his rhymes
He'd never need no one to be there beside him
Now they're all surrounding me and I feel lonely
So lonely

Welcome to my life
You see it is not easy
But I'm doing all right
Welcome to my dream
It's the only one who needs me
And stays by my side

Welcome to my life
You see it is not easy
But I'm doing all right
And welcome to my dream
It's the only one who needs me
And stays right by my side

Stutter - Maroon 5

I really, I really
I really need to know
I really, I really
Or else you gotta let me go
I really, I really

This time I really need to do things right
Shivers that you give me keep me freezing all night
You make me shudder
I can't believe it, I'm not myself
Suddenly I'm thinking about no one else
You make me shudder
I really, I really need to know
Or else you gotta let me go

You're just a fantasy girl
It's an impossible world
All I want is to be with you always
I give you everything
Pay some attention to me
All I want is just you and me always

Give me affection
I need your perfection
Cause you feel so good
You make me stutter, stutter

If I could touch you, I'd never let go
Now you got me screaming
And I cannot shut up, oh, shut up
Now I am lying on the bedroom floor
Barely even speaking and I cannot get up
And I really, I really, I really need to know
Or else you gotta let me go

You're just a fantasy girl
It's an impossible world
All I want is to be with you always
I give you everything
Pay some attention to me
All I want is just you and me always

Give me affection
I need your perfection
Cause you feel so good
You make me stutter, stutter, stutter

You knock me down, I can't get up, I'm stuck
Gotta stop shaking me up
I can't eat, can't sleep, can't think
Sinking under, I'm sinking under

You're just a fantasy girl
It's an impossible world
All I want is to be with you always
I give you everything
Pay some attention to me
All I want is just you and me always

You're just a fantasy girl
It's an impossible world
All I want is to be with you always

Give me affection
I need your perfection
Cause you feel so good
You make me stutter

I really, I really
You make me stutter
I really, I really
You make me stutter

Misery - Maroon 5

So scared of breaking it that you won't let it bend
And I wrote two hundred letters I will never send
Sometimes these cuts are so much deeper than they seem
You'd rather cover up, I'd rather let them bleed
So let me be and I'll set you free

I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Your salty skin and how it mixes in with mine
The way it feels to be completely intertwined
Not that I didn't care, it's that I didn't know
It's not what I didn't feel, it's what I didn't show
So let me be and I'll set you free

I am in misery
And there ain't nobody who can comfort me
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

You say your faith is shaken and you may be mistaken
To keep me wide awake and waiting for the sun
I'm desperate and confused
So far away from you
And I'm getting there, I don't care where I have to run

Why do you do what you do to me, yeah?
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah?
Why do you do what you do to me, yeah?
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah?

I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Girl, you really got me bad
You really got me bad
Now I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back

Lay me down - Avicii

Lay me, la-la-lay me
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
Lay me, la-la-lay me
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
Lay me, la-la-lay me
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down

I feel weak, things get tough
Sometimes my knees can barely hold me up
I'm no fool, but it's said
You gotta walk a mile 'til you're out of my head

Come within, taste it up
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up
Cast your light, give a damn
You gotta make a move and show me where we can stand

Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Come on

Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Come on

Tell me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Tell me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need

I got the time, it’ll be alright
I got the time that you need

We all weep, bleed the same
If you get the picture leave it out of the frame
In the now, take a chance
Make a mess and don't forget that life is a dance

Come within, taste it up
Take a little bit and baby don't you give up
Cast your light, give a damn
You gotta make a move and show me where we can stand

Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Come on

Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Come on

Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need
Show me I'm the one
Tell me I'm the one that you need

Me, show me, baby, baby
Tell me that's me
I got the time, it'll be alright
I got the time that you need
Come on

La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
La-la-lay me
La-la-lay me down
Lay me in darkness

Let it go - Demi Lovato

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn my back and slam the door

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I'm the queen
The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried

Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always had to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
And here I stand and here I'll stay
Let it go, let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway

It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all
Up here in the cold thin air I finally can breathe
I know I left a life behind, but I'm too relieved to grieve

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
And here I stand and here I'll stay
Let it go, let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway

Standing frozen
In the life I've chosen
You won't find me
The past is all behind me
Buried in the snow

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
And here I stand, and here I'll stay
Let it go, let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway

Let it go
Here I stand
Let it go, let it go
Let it go
