Matilda

(альбом: The Lexington - 2023)

You were riding your bike
To the sound of it's No Big Deal
And you're trying to
Lift off the ground
On those old two wheels
Nothing 'bout the way that
You were treated ever seemed
Especially alarming
Till now
So you tie up your hair and
You smile like it's no big deal

You can let it go
You can throw a party full of
Everyone you know
And not invite your family
'Cause they never showed
You love
You don't have to be sorry for
Leaving and growing up

Matilda, you talk of the pain
Like it's all alright
But I know that you
Feel like a piece of
You's dead inside

You showed me a power
That is strong enough to
Bring sun to the darkest days
It's none of my business
But it's just been on my mind

You can let it go
You can throw a party full of
Everyone you know
And not invite your family
'Cause they never showed
You love
You don't have to be sorry for
Leaving and growing up

You can see the world
Following the seasons
Anywhere you go
You don't need a reason
'Cause they never showed
You love
You don't have to be sorry for
Doing it on your own

You're just in time
Make your tea and your toast
You framed all your posters
And dyed your clothes
You don't have to go
You don't have to go home

Oh, there's a long way to go
I don't believe that time
Will change your mind
In other words
I know they won't hurt you
Anymore as long as

You can let them go
You can let it go
You can throw a party full of
Everyone you know
You can start a family
Who will always show you love
You don't have to be sorry for
Doing it on your own

You can let it go
You can throw a party full of
Everyone you know
You can start a family who
Will always show you love
You don't have to be sorry, no
