She carries her burden like a burning flame And it's hurting 'cause its never tamed Not like her, she's not wild and free And her walk don't break easily She'll let it down once She'll let it down twice She'll let it all go But everyone knows It's just ribbons and bows She takes her burden from where she takes her strength No contradiction from within herself Outside shes smiling, she don't believe The lies that shes spinning She don't know it's a sin To let it down once She'll let it down twice She'll let it all go But everyone knows It's just ribbons and bows So take your burden and let it down slow Push your hair back let your face glow Break your step from a forward march And run free till those feelings pass And let it down once She'll let it down twice She'll let it all go But everyone knows It's just ribbons and bows
