You Fell For The Girl

by I Hope You Choke   Aug 17, 2008


She's sitting in the corner on the floor
She can't hide the tears in her eyes anymore
And still you deny them, and tell others your lies:
"She's not crying, she just has sparkling eyes."
She laughs, attempting to cover her wrists,
People catch a glimpse, wonder why so many cuts exist.
You imagine a perfect home, with a new kitten.
The same fake home she wished she lived in.

Welcome to the real world:
You fell in love with the girl
Who's falling apart.
Still, she stole your heart.
Welcome to reality:
She's the only one you see,
And still she's the one who's broken inside
Her body's still alive, but her soul's already died.
You fell in love with the girl
Who's falling apart.

She wants to pretend that everything's okay
So she smiles and laughs, no one knows she's a fake
And that's the way you'd rather leave it be
Let her appear perfect, when it's already what you see.
Last night she wanted to try a new kind of game-
Last night she played a game, and suicide's its name.
She took a few too many Tylenol for an overdose
Didn't tell anyone, so nobody knows.

Welcome to the real world:
You fell in love with the girl
Who's falling apart.
Still, she stole your heart.
Welcome to reality:
She's the only one you see,
And still she's the one who's broken inside
Her body's still alive, but her soul's already died.
You fell in love with the girl
Who's falling apart.

You fell in love with the girl
Who's falling apart.
You wanted her to seem okay,
So you told her she had to change her ways.
No more cutting, no more morbid poetry.
You thought you were setting her free
When all you did was make her hide it more
And now she's the one lying dead on the floor.
You fell in the love with the girl
Who fell apart, and played a game
Suicide's its name.
