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 'til 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 leavin' and growin' up, mmhm
Matilda, you talk of the pain
Like it's all alright
But I know that you feel like
A piece of you's dead insidе
You showed me a power
That is strong еnough
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 leavin' and growin' 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 doin' it on your own
You're just in time,
Make your tea and your toast
You framed all your posters
And dyed your clothes, ooh
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 doin' 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
