Now where did it go wrong
For our little girl
Behind the mask?
Severing stems
Wilting roots
An insurmountable task
Hold your tongue for not much longer
Feel the panic setting in
Look at all she taught you
Know your magic from within
Put on that pretending smile
Wear the crown another day
Keep those doubts but to yourself
Lest they take your friends away
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
When you said that one day I'll be stronger than all the rest
When you said that one day I'll be
Faultless
What was relevant
Motivation
Now slowly slips away
What will that was left
Met silence
The path led her astray
Hold your tongue for not much longer
Feel the panic setting in
Look at all she taught you
Know your magic from within
Put on that pretending smile
Wear the crown another day
Keep those doubts but to yourself
They won't change things anyway
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
When you said that one day I'll be stronger than all the rest
When you said that one day I'll be
Faultless
--please
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
When you said that one day I'll be stronger than all the rest
When you said that one day I'll be...
And every friend along the way was just a tool, was just a tool
And every little boundary was just the rules, was just the rules
And everyone who listened in was just a fool, was just a fool
When I'd be crowned and you'd bow down and tell me everything was fine
When you would speak of destinies, I only know this isn't mine.
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
When you said that one day I'll be stronger than all the rest
When you said that one day I'll be
Faultless
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
I can't tell you how much it meant to me, it meant to me
When you said that one day I'll be stronger than all the rest
When you said that one day I'll be
