Should've Known

Look at the photographs
There's no smile in her eyes
Wouldn't know what she's dealing with
Or that every night she cries
Wouldn't know that her journal's filled with different ways to die
No, you wouldn't know
But you should've known

She looked so innocent and pure
Like she'd never been hurt before
"She's so mature for her age"
Maybe 'cause she's constantly shamed
For never being the same as everybody else

No, you didn't know
But you should've known

Now finally everybody knows
Yeah everybody knows
It's just a few years late but we're lucky the bomb didn't blow
Now everybody knows

Isn't it clear from the photographs that there's shit going on?
Is everyone just blind, while she's used as a pawn
For everybody's fucking games?
How are you not ashamed that you didn't know?
'Cause you should've known

But finally everybody knows
Yeah everybody knows
It's just a few years late but we're lucky the bomb didn't blow
And she's still standing here to put on this great show
Yeah, you should've known

Those pain-filled eyes told you everything you need to know
Those endless nights of crying up on the elliptical
You all should've known

But she seemed so innocent and pure
Like she'd never been hurt before
She was so mature for her age
That it didn't matter anyway
No, it didn't matter anyway

'Cause even though nobody knew
She constantly pushed through
And everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows now
Everybody knows
Still you should've known
