|
Pierced in the heart by a sinister dark |
|
Thrown from and insecure tongue |
|
Unaware of the arrow sticking out of her chest |
|
Embedded when she was so young |
|
I never would have thought |
|
That the poison would rot |
|
Away and away and away, it eats at her pride |
|
And she constantly hides, afraid of what others will say |
|
And often at night she turns out the light |
|
Anxiously waiting for sleep |
|
The world of her dreams is better it seems |
|
There she can finally be free |
|
But the arrow it stays, it's there when she wakes |
|
Binding her feet to the ground |
|
Perpetually holding her back from her goals |
|
A mountain she can't get around |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
And let your worries fall |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
Nothing to fear at all |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
Now she is old, her body is cold |
|
Alone in the bed as she cries |
|
Nobody visits and tells her how alone |
|
She quietly closes her eyes |
|
Through all of her days, arrows remain |
|
Never permitting release |
|
And with her last breath she is waiting for death |
|
Hoping for peace |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
And let your worries fall |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
Nothing to fear at all |
|
Let it go, dear |
|
Let it go, dear |
