I met a girl who hated the world - she used her body to sell her soul
Everytime they'd break her and pay - tear out her heart, and leave her in pain
I never found out how she survived all of the sadness she kept inside
I never found out how she could lie with a smile on her face,
and the scratches she'd hide

[Chorus:]
You could love her if you paid, you could have her everyday
You could love her if you prayed, you could have her every way

Down on her knees, she wept on the floor - this hopeless life she wanted no
more
Dead in her mind and cold to the bone - she opened her eyes and saw she was
alone
She never found out how much I tried - all of the sadness she kept made me
blind
She never found out how much I cried - the rope so tight on the night that she
died...

[Chorus]

I never found out how she survived - a life lived in lies is a life of denial
I never found out how she could lie - with a smile on her face and the darkness
inside

[Chorus x2]
