The golden boy in the crowd
The world loves him now
And so do you
But his mirror shows only himself
It'd be easy to tell if you had my view

You might go hungry, might go blind (everything fades)
If you keep on keeping him in mind (take it away)
Baby, you can't keep waiting round
Love is your own choice to be found
Something that your body doesn't know a thing about

Girl you've got to woman up
Girl you've got to woman up
Get your rainbow off the rug
And start anew
Girl you've got to woman up
Bite the bullet, not the dust
Cuz the road to better love
Is losing you

So bad you feel when you wait
Your dignity's down the drain
It ain't right if the road only goes one way
It's okay to love hard as long as long as you're loving you first babe
Cuz you can't trust no one else to be your friend these days

You might go hungry, might go blind (everything fades)
If you let your power go this time (take it away)
Baby, I hate to see you cry
But only good's in this goodbye
Step out of the forest and you'll see the trees behind

Girl you've got to woman up
Girl you've got to woman up
Get your rainbow off the rug
And start anew
Girl you've got to woman up
Bite the bullet, not the dust
Cuz the road to better love
Is losing you
