Strum strum strum Strummedy Strum Strum
You were once a sweet little girl,
So innocent and pure,
Your eyes were open and sure- anyone could look right in.
And while look closely- you gaze,
You looked up towards the sky,
but i watched your face drift away as the things caught your eye.
The magazines and media supplied you with their best protocol,
And maybe music television really is the devil after all.
But all i can say is I knew you before you were beautiful back then,
Before you grew up,
Em Riffidy Riff Riff
Before you gave in..
You dream of sharing your heart, Instead you share your bed,
And the Pain you feel doesnt leave with all the Skin that you have shed. Em Riff
And you dream of bearing your soul,
Instead you bare more skin,
And you wear dark glasses to keep anyone from looking in.
The magazines and media supplied you with their best protocol,
And maybe music television really is the devil after all.
But all i can say is i knew you before you were beautiful back then,
Before you gave up,
Before you gave in..
But all i can say is i knew you before you were beautiful back then,
You could be beautiful again...
