Intro

Verse

 On the porch she will sit

 Light another cigarette

 And take a sip of anything that makes it right

 She’s outside, trying to hide from the fight just inside,

 Where her mom and her dad destroy each other

 And on the phone she will call

 Every boy, yeah, one and all

 They will touch her in all the right places

 And in her room, she will slide

 Down the bed and try to fly,

 And she will fall once again for the feeling

 And as he grabs her brown hair,

 She is faking

 That the feeling he gives her is real

 As the floor underneath the bed is

 Breaking in two

 She will finish what she starts with “I love you”

 So from her head to her toes,

 Nervous hands and runny nose,

 All of this just for one night of feeling

 And in her ears she will hear

 All the things that hide her fears

 Of dying young and making plans for the future

 And all the marks on her arms

 Symbolize a fractured heart

 And all the boys that were smart

 Left her alone

 So from the roof, she will fly

 15 feet down the side

 Of the house where she once was happy

 Yes is true, she’s aware

 That she is breaking

 And its true, she cant do anything

 Well in her blue underwear

 She is thinking how

 In jesus’ precious name

 She got here

 Well it’s sad but its true

 She is ending

 But for now, she will pray for some wings

 On a black Cadillac she is landing hard

 Yet her parents’ biggest worry is the car

There you go.
