Ribbon

How do you break a chain that's so ingrained in every part of you?
How do you learn to the cut the ties without compromising who
Who thought you'd be by now? Who you should be by now?

Where do you put the time it took for you to grow into yourself?
How do you keep it from unraveling when you're tied to someone else?
It's history by now, a part of me by now

I couldn't choose a piece to lose if I tried to

I'm a ribbon on a wire
Caught up in the crossfire
Some days are low and some are higher
I'm just trying to stay inspired

No, I'm not the same as last year
Learned to let myself be happier
Let go and I got a little lighter
Unfold, I'm a ribbon on a wire

If I let a memory weave it's way into the way I see the world
I might as well pull out the poison, keep everything else
I don't wanna hurt someone 'cause I've been hurt by someone

I couldn't even change the past if I tried to

I'm a ribbon on a wire
Caught up in the crossfire
Some days are low and some are higher
I'm just trying to stay inspired

No, I'm not the same as last year
Learned to let myself be happier
Let go and I got a little lighter
Unfold, I'm a ribbon on a wire

Ooh, whoa
Ooh, ooh
Ooh

And I'm kinda barely holding on
Think I like the never knowing
'Cause if I don't know where I'm going
Means I've got somewhere to go and

I'm a ribbon on a wire
Caught up in the crossfire
Some days are low and some are higher
I'm just trying to stay inspired

No, I'm not the same as last year
Learned to let myself be happier
Let go and I got a little lighter
Unfold, I'm a ribbon on a wire

Ooh, whoa
Ooh, ooh
Turns out, I don't have to fly it
Unfold, I'm a ribbon on a wire
