She Knows (Edit)

She knows me
She knows me
She knows me
She knows

Before the makeup
Before the boys
Before all the things that weigh us down
All the silly noise
Before the doubt that came crashing in
Between the cracks upon our skin
When we were children just playing
Oh she knows me
She knows

Before the body
Before the clothes
Before everything we learned to hate
That wasn't good enough
Before the ocean of opinions came to rise
Before we lost ourselves behind the cruelest eyes
When we were young just trying to fit in
Oh she knows me
Before everything

All of the time we've spent apart
All of the tears and broken hearts
All of the lessons we've had to learn
All the ups and downs and all the crazy turns
And now we're grown ups just hanging in
But she knows me
She knows

Before the career
Before the goals
Before all the things that wouldn't be quite the way we'd hoped
Before the money started ruling the game
Before the illness was given a name
Before we lost someone we loved and would never be the same
And when I've lost myself again
I'm grateful for a friend

Who knows me
Who knows me
Who knows me
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows me
Before everything
