Another Innocent Girl
he likes to act he's grown up
he wanted to grow up to be
an actor
he never told anybody
he likes to spill all of his guts
on the top.of a well stocked bar
and then swallow them bit by bit
remembering every scar
it's a valid reason
for every drink
and a new tattoo is a new reason to think
he likes to pretend that he's all sewn up
it makes for a much stronger case
but there's blood underneath that skin
that scars not so easy to erase
he walks with a glass cane now
he's careful, holding his body up straight
can't go outside anymore when it's raining
can't smash up that beautiful face
another innocent girl
just made his list
that self pity shits just too hard to resist
yeah when we get home you'll see
that this part of him is now part of me
he likes to act he's grown up
he wanted to grow up to be
an actor
he never told anybody
he likes to spill all of his guts
on the top of a well stocked bar
and then swallow them bit by bit
remembering every scar
it's a valid reason
for stringer drinks
and a new tattoo is a new reason to think
yeah when we get home you'll see
that this part of him is now part of me
yeah when we get home you'll see
that this part of him is controlling me
and it's way too easy to fake this smile and lead you on
maybe I'm wrong
but everyone gets bored once in a while
he wanted to grow up to be
an actor
he never told anybody
he likes to spill all of his guts
on the top.of a well stocked bar
and then swallow them bit by bit
remembering every scar
it's a valid reason
for every drink
and a new tattoo is a new reason to think
he likes to pretend that he's all sewn up
it makes for a much stronger case
but there's blood underneath that skin
that scars not so easy to erase
he walks with a glass cane now
he's careful, holding his body up straight
can't go outside anymore when it's raining
can't smash up that beautiful face
another innocent girl
just made his list
that self pity shits just too hard to resist
yeah when we get home you'll see
that this part of him is now part of me
he likes to act he's grown up
he wanted to grow up to be
an actor
he never told anybody
he likes to spill all of his guts
on the top of a well stocked bar
and then swallow them bit by bit
remembering every scar

and a new tattoo is a new reason to think
yeah when we get home you'll see

yeah when we get home you'll see
that this part of him is controlling me
and it's way too easy to fake this smile and lead you on
maybe I'm wrong
but everyone gets bored once in a while
