She was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild but innocent
Perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and differentStupid boy, you can't fence that in
Stupid boy, it's like holding back the windShe laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
That's what happens when the only voice
She hears is tellin' her she can'tStupid boy, you stupid boySo what made you think you could take her life
And just push it, push it around?
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her and break her downShe laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
That's what happens when the only voice
She hears is tellin' her she can'tStupid boy, ah you always had to be right
And now you lost the only thing that ever made you feel aliveShe laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
That's what happens when the only voice
She hears is tellin' her she can'tStupid boy, ah, it's the same old
Same old, stupid boyIt took a while for her to figure out she could run
But when she did she was long gone, long gone, yeahStupid boy, you're just a stupid boy
You never get it right, do you?
