I met a girl who hated the world   She used her body to sell her soul   Every time 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      You could love her if you paid   You could have her every day   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   Rope so tight on the night that she died      You could love her if you paid   You could have her every day   You could love her if you prayed   You could have her every way      I never found out how she survived   A life living lies is a life of denial   I never found out how she could lie   The lie on her face and the darkness inside      You could love her if you paid   You could have her every day   You could love her if you prayed   You could have her every way
