There was a girl I used to know
side by side we did grow
always smiling she had the stage
adored by all from a tender age
as time went by she began to cry
so i'd take her hand and away we'd fly
to a place where manners mattered not
and in this place to her i taught
you spent your life pleasing all
and by the wayside your "friends" did fall
they never caught you when you fell
twas me who, for you, went to hell
in the mirror I see her face
wipe the tears and take her place
she is tired now and can take no more
this life has treated her like a whore
following the rules and rising above
never once earned her love
I've been her understudy for so long
now she cannot sing her song
It is my time to take her place
no more tears running down our face
The heart we share will remain cold
no more i love yous to be told
smell the flowers ignore the weeds
tis the time to fullfil our needs
I'll sheild us from the judging glares
as we move to sample wares
I'll find a wild steed that suits us right
A fierce one that can run all night
To carry us off to the land of dreams
To the land of subdued screams
swimming in a sea of lust
she'll realize she no longer must
offer up any explaination
or live up to expectations
from this day forward she will always be
uninhibited living free
