Don’t let them get to you
Chill, let it go
You’re letting them wear you down
They’re stripping the innocence from your soul
They’re grinding you into the ground

You best look in the mirror
Cleanse the grime from your face
Take some time and calm yourself
It’s time to leave their cruel rat race

This world is not a gentle place
It doesn’t care who’s left behind
Your beauty carries you through the day
But the nights, they’re not so kind

Chill, let it go
Shake it off like newly fallen snow
Don’t let the trials of the day bore into you
Or peel your armor away
Stand firm, and never leave room to doubt
That you were true to yourself at the end of each day

You’re trying too hard, much too hard
To show how strong you are
You needn’t be who you’re not
Don’t let anyone put you in a box
You are gentle-spirited, pure of mind
With a sense for a life and a desire for fun

The world can be a tough place
With millions of people all about
Running to and fro in a crazy rat race
Just to be heard you must often shout
It’s made you want to hide
So, you’ve built up your walls
You’ve locked yourself inside
It’s hard to break through
You don’t let me enter, I don’t have a clue

We weren’t meant to be alone
With no one to care and greet us at home
You’re my love, you’ll always be
There’s nothing more to be said
I wrap myself in the comfort of your arms
And accompany you to bed
But, the morning came too quickly
 I woke up and you were gone
A note on the pillow left me feeling a bit sickly
“The world’s taken a bite out of me,
I’ll not see you again, it’s time for me to move on
Chill, let me go”
