But don't believe, that's all there is to see.
You'll never know the real me.
She smiles through a thousand tears, and harbors adolescent fears. She Dreams of all that she can never be, she wades in insecurity, and hides herself inside of me. Dont say she takes it all for granted, Im well aware of all I have,
Dont think that i am disenchanted,
Please understand
It seems as thought i've always been somebody outside looking in
Well, here i am for all of them to bleed
But they cant take my heard from me, and they cant bring me to my knees..
Your voice is small and fading, and you hide in here unknown, and your mother loves your father, cuz she's got no where to go...
They press their lips against you, and you love the lies they say, and i tried so hard to reach you, but your falling anyway...
And you know, i see right through you..
* she hangs around the boulevard, she's a local girl w/ local scars, she got home late, she got home late, she drank so hard the bottle ached, and she tried and she triedand she tried and she tried, but nothings clear in a bar full of flies, so she takes and she takes, takes and she takes, she understands when she gives it away, she says man i gotta get out of this town, mand i gotta get out of this town, she'sgot a gun, she got a gun she called the lucky one, left a note, by the phone,, dont leave a message cuz this aint a home, and she cried and cried, cried so long her tears ran dry..laughed and she laughed cuz she knew she was never comin back...
its all she loves its all she hates, its all too much for her to take...
*You wanna stay little daddy's girl, you wanna hide from the viscious world outside.
*Dont cry, you know the Tears will do no good, so dry you're eyes.
*Your momma, she's a bitter bride, she'll never be satisfied, you know, and thats not right.
*They told you life is hard, misery from the start, its slow its painful.
*They are blind, and they can't see.
*Is it dark enough, can you see me? do you want me? can you reach me?
