This girl is collecting
Not without circumstance, but
Not a victim, defenseless
She’s delicate, defiant
Weary, tells no lies (Weary tales, no lies?)
Just proud acceptance
She’s gonna, she’s gonna
Gonna let it ride
She’s gonna, she’s gonna
Gonna let it ride
Like a book with no ending,
Read backwards to beginning
She stands on edge with lifted wings
Prepare to ascend
What she’s asking for
Is promises no more
She’s through depending
She’s gonna, she’s gonna
Gonna let it ride
She’s gonna, she’s gonna
Gonna let it ride
Tears will be alright (arrivin’?)
Death can’t be denied
There will goodbyes
But she’ll never leave ya (your?)
Clear and conscious mind
Accept she’ll decide
Law must step aside
Let the end bring her freedom
Break her body’s chains
Move (love?) without the pain
Look she signs her name, look around her eye will be there (or I will be there?)
Look around, she’ll always be there
Let there be no misconception This girl is collecting Not without circumstance, but Not a victim, defenseless She’s delicate, defiant Weary, tells no lies (Weary tales, no lies?) Just proud acceptance She’s gonna, she’s gonna Gonna let it ride She’s gonna, she’s gonna Gonna let it ride Like a book with no ending, Read backwards to beginning She stands on edge with lifted wings Prepare to ascend What she’s asking for Is promises no more She’s through depending She’s gonna, she’s gonna Gonna let it ride She’s gonna, she’s gonna Gonna let it ride Tears will be alright (arrivin’?) Death can’t be denied There will goodbyes But she’ll never leave ya (your?) Clear and conscious mind Accept she’ll decide Law must step aside Let the end bring her freedom Break her body’s chains Move (love?) without the pain Look she signs her name, look around her eye will be there (or I will be there?) Look around, she’ll always be there Explain Request ×
