My name is Mandy Vinson and I am a small town girl songwriter. I have been writing songs since I was younger, but started getting serious with it about 4 years ago. Writing has always been a passion. I also have a blog page lifeinspiredmommy.com.
Verse 1:
I'm so tired of the fake friends
and love that comes and goes
it's a cycle that never ends
and the stress is starting to show
I've held on for so long
Thinking one day it will work
But I come back to the same song
and this old raggedy shirt
Chorus:
It's time to clean out my closet
Let go of the past
if it's not in my present
It's not going to last
Letting go of what could be
and letting go of what was
I'm cleaning out my closet
Because it's no longer enough
Verse 2:
I'll hold on to the good times
But it's time for a change
I'm taking back what was mine
My hearts no longer a game
I won't give up the best of me
The worst is off to the store
Maybe for someone whose meant to be
It'll be worth so much more
Chorus:
It's time to clean out my closet
Let go of the past
if it's not in my present
It's not going to last
Letting go of what could be
and letting go of what was
I'm cleaning out my closet
Because it's no longer enough
Bridge:
It's time to move on, move on, move on
Stop letting it hold me back
I need to stop holding on, holding on, holding on
The trash bags are getting packed
Chorus:
It's time to clean out my closet
Let go of the past
if it's not in my present
It's not going to last
Letting go of what could be
and letting go of what was
I'm cleaning out my closet
Because it's no longer enough

Verse 1:
Do you ever wonder what it's like
to be that bird flying in the sky
Well, I do, I do
Do you ever get so overwhelmed
It's like you're in the Rocky Horror Picture film
Well I do, I do
Pre-Chorus:
It's like I'm trapped, I'm out of whack
I can't stop the over thinking, mental beatings
Am I weird or am I cool
Are my friends fake or are they true
Chorus:
Just stop, take a deep breath in
Don't let the cruelness win
Just stop, let you breath flow out
Along with all your doubts
Verse 2:
Do you ever watch as horses graze
in their calm, quite, peaceful ways
well I do, I do
Do you ever tire of all the noise
You feel your happy is gone along with joy
Well I do, I do
Pre-Chorus:
It's like I'm sad or always mad
Can't stop to breathe, no time for me
Am I wrong or am I right
Myself, I shouldn't have to fight
Chorus:
Just stop, take a deep breath in
Don't let the cruelness win
Just stop, let your breath flow out
Along with all of you doubt
Coda:
Have you ever felt the peacefulness
When you push on strong and never quit
Verse :
I know I'm not perfect
I'm a sinner too
But I know I am worth it
Because I believe in you
Chorus:
Lord Show me the way
Show me the way
Verse 2:
In this world I'm not sure
What will become
But one thing I am sure of
Is his love for us
Chorus:
Lord Show me the way
Show me the way
Repeat Verse 1
