She was precious like a flower
She grew wild
wild but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful
and different
Stupid boy
you can't fence that in
Stupid boy
it's like holding back the wind
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens
When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't
Stupid boy
So what made you think you could take a life
And just push it
push it around
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her and break her down
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens
When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't
You stupid boy
Oh
you always had to be right
But now you've lost the only thing that ever made you feel alive
You stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice and that's what happens
When the only voice she hears
is telling her she can't
You stupid boy
oh
is the same old same old stupid boy
It took a while for her to figure out she could run
But when she did
she was long gone
long gone
