Stupid Boy

1. Well, she was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and different.

Stupid boy, you can't fence that in
Stupid boy, it's like holding back the wind.

[Chorus:]
She 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 and that's what happens
When the only voice she hears is telling her she can't
Stupid boy, stupid boy
Oh.

2. So what made you think you could take a life
And just push it push it around
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her and break her down.

[Bridge:]
Oh, you always had to be right but now you've lost
The only thing that ever made you feel alive
Yeah, yeah.

[Coda:]
I'm the same old, same old stupid boy
It took a while for her to figure out she could run
But when she did, she was long gone, long gone.
