a little girl hurting
her mind full of grief
you come to save her
and she's full of disbelief

somehow she knew when she saw you
that you'd make it alright
she felt something within her
it was love at first sight

you stayed up all night talking
you seemed to good to be true
she had never felt like this before
and she couldn't believe she had you

she had butterflies in her stomach
from every word you spoke
she kept expecting something to change
or for it to all have been a joke

it wasn't a joke
your love was for real
you made her so happy
you made her truly feel

she couldn't stop smiling
she knew you were the one
she knew you'd be together forever
and that her search was done

even though you loved her
she was insecure
she needed to find a way
to know that you loved her for sure

she'd pull you close to her
but then push you far away
she'd make you work for her
made you try hard everyday

she made you think you'd lose her
and that she'd be okay
but that just simply wasn't true
and it was her biggest mistake

she knew that she was falling
but she was so scared of getting hurt
instead of showing she loved you
she made you believe you couldn't work

she thought you were so perfect
she looked amazing on your arm
here was her boyfriend so damn sexy
and of course so full of charm

he brought out all her beauty
he made her see that she was hot
he made her feel like she was her princess
her life was filled to the top

you were the sweetest guy ever
you missed her the second she was gone
it was clear you were in love
and that she was your number one

you guys were the perfect couple
you looked so good together
you weren't the only ones
that believed you could last forever

yet with all these perfections
there was doubt in the back of her mind
she didn't know why you loved her
she thought you were wasting your time

she thought you'd soon realize
that you could do much better than her
then she'd be left alone again
feeling betrayed and hurt

she needed to test her theory
see if you loved her with all your heart
she wanted to protect herself
so that you couldn't tear her apart

she caused so many fights
always making you look wrong
she thought it would make you love her
she didn't see that you had all along

then one day she realized she had to stop
because she had the perfect guy
"house of wax" you called that day
the day she decided to really try

to be the perfect girlfriend
to her oh so amazing man
she was going to stop the fighting
she'd do all that she can

but that night something happened
you guys had yet another fight
she didn't know how to handle it
she cried alone all night

she wouldn't hear your explanation
she'd caught you in a lie
her friends knew that you loved her
they saw you were about to cry

she didn't mean to hurt you
she was just so confused
she knew that you weren't lying
but her heart had been bruised

luckily she listened to her friends
cause she saw that they were right
she apologized to you over the phone
and was regretting she didn't kiss you that night

she promised herself she'd really stop
you'd never fight again
you'd be happy together forever
never stop kissing in the rain

you'd have your perfect wedding
on the beach like in your dreams
but the next day she learnt reality
was nothing like it seemed

because her fairytale ended
her nightmare became true
she no longer had her perfect life
because she no longer had you

you said you couldn't take it
you had too many fights
you said that it was over
and that you guys weren't right

she looked down at the phone
not believing the words she saw
you destroyed your girlfriend's soul
you left her heart cold and raw

she locked herself outside in the rain
she broke down covered in tears
she couldn't believe that it was true
her reality was now her fears

she saw no point in living
she didn't eat for days
she just wasn't hungry
and thought she'd never be okay

memories haunted her mind and soul
they tore her life apart
you did what she had feared most
you broke her fragile heart

on the surface she expected it
but deep down she never thought you would
after all you were her "Mr perfect"
and she didn't think you could

her life changed that day
it's never been the same
you guys have kissed many times since
but you just break her heart again

she's finally seeing she'll never get you back
she's learning to live without her perfect guy
but often at night she'll think of you
and it'll make her break down and cry

she's grown up a lot now
she's no longer that little girl
you changed her life so much
you opened her eyes to the world

the mirror told me this story
and I can't believe what I see
the girl with so much pain in her past
is no one other than ME

thirteen months ago
was when our love truly died
my mind is now its tombstone
keeping our memories locked inside
