Lyrics[]
Parade Mode[]
Intro (English):
- The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
- Not a footprint to be seen
- A kingdom of isolation,
- and it looks like I'm the Queen
- The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
- Couldn't keep it in, Heaven knows I tried
- Don't let them in, don't let them see
- Be the good girl you always have to be
- Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
- Well, now they know!
English Lyrics:
- Let it go! Let it go!
- Can't hold it back anymore!
- Let it go! Let it go!
- Turn away and slam the door!
- I don't care what they're going to say
- Let the storm rage on
- The cold never bothered me anyway
Verse (English):
- My power flurries through the air into the ground
- My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
- And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
- I'm never going back, the past is in the past!
English Lyrics:
- Let it go! Let it go!
- And I'll rise like the break of dawn
- Let it go! Let it go!
- That perfect girl is gone!
- Here I stand in the light of day
- Let the storm rage on!!!
- The cold never bothered me anyway
