~Let Go~

I've been watching you, dear friend,  
The way you talk, the words you've said.  
You should know I see right through,  
I see the colors inside you.  
Your heart is cold, your touch sublime,  
You feel like dying all the time.  
You've got the weight of all the world,  
There on your shoulders, don't you, Girl?  
-  
Just let it go...just let it go.  
its not easy, oh, I know,  
But you have to let it go.  
-  
That old familiar one-way track,  
Keeps on pulling, pulling you back  
and, though, I know you fight it so,  
Round and around that track you go.  
The same old fight, the same old song,  
The same old right, the same old wrong,  
and, after all this time, you're strong,  
though the world's been on your shoulders all along.  
-  
Just let it go... Let it go.  
Oh, take it all off of your Soul.  
You know you have to let it go.  
-  
All of those things you hold on to,  
The things that you let destroy you;  
The things done by many the fool,  
that gave not Love but many wounds.  
The times you felt you weren't enough,  
But shoved it down and acted tough.  
The Pain and all the Memories,  
You cant hold on, so set them free.  
-
Just let go...just let go.  
The Wind is wild, don't you know?  
The World will turn, just let it go...
