Here's a story…
Here's a story…
Here's a story about a girl I once loved
And I'd still love her if she was still around
It felt like yesterday but I'll say once upon a time
There was a girl who was far more beautiful
Than did her any good
The amazing thing about it is she had no idea
And nor did she feel compelled
To notice such things in others
She just thought that's how the universe worked
What she failed to take into account
Is the foundational self interest
Of all sentient beings
And that's when it all came…
(Well for her anyway)
That's when it all came crumbling to pieces
(Verse One)
She was a girl who
Never thought
Never guessed
Never got
In spite of all the life and love
There was to go around
Beauty, purity, liberty, symmetry, serenity and energy
Are only for the ones who pay the price with others blood
And throw…
Down
Steal that crown
Taking that slave
Spinning that head around
You get it
They get it
He got it
I get it
Those people got it
But bless her heart she never even stood a chance in hell
(Chorus)
Oh when I came here I was lost and forgotten
Until then the sun rose in the dawn
And I just meant to stay forever here running
But in three seconds I'll be gone
(Verse Two)
She was a girl who
Never thought
Never guessed
Never got
How many tears it took to take
The wretched tyrant down
You get it
They get it
He got it
I get it
Those people got it
But bless her heart she never even stood a chance in hell
(Chorus)
Oh when I came here I was lost and forgotten
Until then the sun rose in the dawn
And I just meant to stay forever here running
But in three seconds I'll be gone
And I can't remember my name. It's forgotten
And they all told me I was wrong
‘Cause I just meant to stay forever here loving
But in three seconds I'll be gone
