Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand
'Cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
Oh... I've had it up to here!The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear'Cause I'm just a girl.
I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night
I'm just a girl,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes
I'm just a girl.
Take a good looks at me
Just your typical prototype
Oh... I've had it up to here!
Oh... am I making myself clear?
I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Make me worry some
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to
Is making me numb
I'm just a girl. my apologies
What I've become is burdensome
I'm just a girl. lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison
Oh... I've had it up to!
Oh... I've had it up to!!
Oh... I've had it up to here.

You and me
We used to be together
Every day together always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real,
Well I don't want to knowDon't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurtsOur memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frighteningAs we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry
Chorus
It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are...
You and me
I can see us dying...are we?
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't speak
Don't speak
Don't speak
ohhhhh
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good
I know you're good
I know you're real good oh
La da da da da da
La da da da da da
Don't, don't
Ohh Ohh
Hush me hush me darling
Hush me hush me darling
Hush me hush me, don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Hush me hush me darling
Hush me hush me darling
Hush me hush me, don't tell me 'cause it hurts

I'm closing all the curtains
So don't you even bother
And i'm calling out the murder
But i'm underneath the covers
But who's fooling who
With this mood like a train
Watch me roll over
Get out of my way

Chorus:
There's a knock on my door
But i'm not gonna open it
I'm gonna close my eyes
And maybe it will go away

I want a platinum blonde life
So i keep bleaching out the colors
I try to do what i oughta
But never drink enough water
Where did my lover go?
I really wish he could stay
I feel it's empty as a widow
I'm gonna sleep it all away

Repeat chorus

I'm gonna sleep all trough the day
I'm gonna asleep my life away
I'm gonna sleep all through the day
I'm gonna sleep myself away
I'm gonna close my eyes and maybe it'll go away

Repeat chorus

I'm gonna close my eyes and maybe it will go away

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (whoa)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
And you know it makes me sick to be on that list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed

You say you're gonna burn before you're mellow
I'll be the one to burn you
Why'd ya have to go and pick me
When you knew that we were different
Completely

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (whoa)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (whoa)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them (whoa)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

And I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed

Your wildness scares me so does your freedom
See i can't stand the restrictions
I found myself trying to change you
If you were meant to be my lover I wouldn't have to

And I feel so mean
I feel in-between
Cause I'm about to
Give you away

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
(For someone else to take)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
(You're making a mistake)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
(All the time we wasted)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girl...friend

And I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed
And I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed

I'm about to give you away
For someone else to take
I'm about to give you away
For someone else to take

You repeated mistakes for sourvenirs
We've been in-between the days for years
I believed it when I said you were going to die
Now I'm gonna watch you and you know why
Its gonna kill me to see you with the next girl
Cause I'm almost awfully so jealous cause the next girl
But i shoulda thought of that before we kissed

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (whoa)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (whoa)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

And I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I shoulda thought of that before we kissed

You're always tellin' me to go out more
Go ahead, get out and see the world
But then I think, why should I
I'd rather stay home and cry

I never thought that I could be the other
The other way like the other ones
Let me open wide, let you see inside
And then you might agree

Would you say they find me unstable
'Cause they see me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures and
Think about it, won't you think it over
Please

Without you I can move
I can stretch my arms out, I can feel it
And when I'm in my room alone I feel good
Because I don't have to deal with you or the outside world

Would you say they find me unstable
'Cause they see me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures and
Think about it, won't you think it over
Please

I guess I'll get over it
Ooh - I guess I'll get over it
I guess I'll get over it
I guess I'll get over it

Would you say they find me unstable
'Cause they see me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures
Would you say they find me unstable
'Cause they see me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures
Would you say they find me unstable
'Cause they see me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures
Greener pastures
See me act a little bit different
But I know my way through greener pastures
