The Girl I Used to Know
It was a tragic life story
Trying to fit in skinny jeans and be who they wanna see
I crossed my heart and hoped that I would make it through the day
I stayed in my place thinking the best was the prom queen
Now I can finally say I'm worth the same as the girl with baby blue eyes
The smile
The life
Everything you wish
Tell the girl you call the one
Or your roommate for life
You're welcome to my leftovers
I don't ever want you back 'cause I don't miss who I was at all
The girl I see wears the crown of a queen
The girl I see
She's better than she's ever been before
Look at her, there she goes
Look at her
Look at me
What do you see
I see a girl who's taking on the world and the girl I was before
Well, she's just the girl I used to know.
We all have bad days
The way I did my hair
Ah yes, that was a time
I promised them
You and him that I'd never stop this fight so I stayed in my place too afraid to try
Now I can scream out loud
I did it all
I'll throw my cap up high till it reaches cloud nine
Tell the ones before who called me best friend
My love
You're just someone I used to know
I don't ever want you back 'cause I don't miss who I was at all
The girl I see wears the crown of a queen
The girl I see
She's better than she's ever been before
Look at her
There she goes
Look at her
Look at me
What do you see
I see a girl who's taking on the world and the girl I was before
Well she's just the girl I used to know
I see the girl who's been through too much
I see the girl who grew up way too fast but yet I see the girl who's ready to be yours
I see the girl staring back at me
She wants to know how far she's gonna go and I know she'll never be the girl I used to know
Look at her
There she goes
Look at her
Look at me
What do you see
I see a girl who's taking on the world and the girl I was before
Well she's just the girl I used to know
Trying to fit in skinny jeans and be who they wanna see
I crossed my heart and hoped that I would make it through the day
I stayed in my place thinking the best was the prom queen
Now I can finally say I'm worth the same as the girl with baby blue eyes
The smile
The life
Everything you wish
Tell the girl you call the one
Or your roommate for life
You're welcome to my leftovers
I don't ever want you back 'cause I don't miss who I was at all
The girl I see wears the crown of a queen
The girl I see
She's better than she's ever been before
Look at her, there she goes
Look at her
Look at me
What do you see
I see a girl who's taking on the world and the girl I was before
Well, she's just the girl I used to know.
