"Big Girls" lyrics

Always thought the game came easy
You never thought about it twice
Your luck was leaving, so, you just threw the dice
And time was on your side
Time, was always on your side

But times got tough and life got even
So, you told yourself some lies
And now you truly do believe that
There's only one way to survive: you hold on to your pride

Big girls, they don't cry
Heart of stone, gone cold as ice
They close the door, they keep it all inside

You trusted love but love's deceiving
Now you know that it's unfair, you know love is so unfair
But it hurts the worst, believe me
When you show them that you care; so, never show that you care

Big girls, they don't cry
Heart of stone, gone cold as ice
They close the door, they keep it all inside
Know when to hide, know when to fight
Tell the lies, that's how they survive

Don't let them see, don't give yourself away
Hold on, hold on!
Keep your head girl, there's so much more at stake
Hold on, hold on!

You took a hit and the ship is going down
Hold on, hold on!
A spark is lit and the fire is spreading fast
Hold on, hold on!

See clouds are bursting and the water's rising fast
Hold on, hold on!
Stop the wrecking ball or the walls are coming down
Hold on, hold on!
