Back when I was a foolish young girl Went off to rule the music world He told me please do not fret Calm little grin that felt so perfect He got a single ticket Far west where folks can make it Six youths packed in a small room To sun-lit pool-side fortunes He met a dame who wore Armani Red velvet cloaks and shiny jewelry Bound to be a court phenomenon He\'s gonna be Kobe Bryant someday He bought a silver Mustang He bragged over the cellphone I try to stay so calm but My world spins in slow motion Farewell angel eyes I hope you can spot the awful truth Lost inside the thrill it\'s breaking you Yelling at the flames you fly into Locked within an arm when we were one Hands squeezed in a ball like you would flee I make do with a shade I never met Plastic paradise I clung unto But I make do with a shade Back in my little hometown no one Went off to rule the music world He\'d stay and love his woman Give all he had to his new infant I miss him please don\'t judge me That guy went out of his mind Trapped in the spotlight lust he\'s Hunting for empty pipe dreams I know you quit but I I know you quit but I still try My lightning struck him down My lightning came and struck him down That chick is gone but I That chick is gone but I still try I guess it\'s finished now The arrow struck but maybe not I feel so freaking numb It strikes my brain and I feel numb My body feels so wrong My body feels so wrong My body feels so wrong Farewell angel eyes I hope you can spot the awful truth Lost inside the thrill it\'s breaking you Yelling at the flames you fly into Locked within an arm when we were one Hands squeezed in a ball like you would flee I make do with a shade I never met Plastic paradise I clung unto But I make do with a shade
