[English]

Snow glows white on the mountain night

not a footprint to be seen.

A kingdom of isolation

and it looks like i'm the King

The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside

I couldn't keep it in

Heaven knows I've tried

Don't let them in, don't let them see

Be the good guy you always have to be

Conceal don't feel

don't let them know....

Well now they know....

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

It's funny how some distance

makes everything seems small

And the fears that once controlled me

can't get to me at all!

It's time to see

what I can do

To test the limits and breakthrough

No wrong no right

no rules for me

I'm free!!

Let it go!

Let it go!

I'm one with the wind and sky

Let it go!

Let it go!

You'll never see me cry!

Here I stand

And here I'll stay

Let the storm rage on.....

My power flurries through the air into the ground

My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around

And one thought crystalizes like an icy blast

I'm never going back

the past is in the past!

Let it go!

let it go!

And I'll rise like the break of dawn

Let it go!

Let it go!

That perfect boy is gone!

Here I stand

in the light of day!

Let the storm rage on!!

The cold never bothered me anyway...
