If only you knew
If only you could see the way she cries
If only you noticed the pain in her eyes
She thinks it’s her fault
Tries to make it up to you
But you’re just like the rest
Put her on a pedestal
Then kick it out from under her feet
She never saw it coming
She starts to crumble
She takes a path she never knew was there
The light begins to fade and darkness fills the air
Something is wrong
She is not herself
Finally you try to make it right
Tell her what she deserves to hear
But you can save your breath
This girl drank herself to death

If only you knew
If only you could see the way she cries
If only you noticed the pain in her eyes
She thinks it’s her fault
Tries to make it up to you
But you’re just like the rest
Put her on a pedestal
Then kick it out from under her feet
She never saw it coming
She starts to crumble
She takes a path she never knew was there
The light begins to fade and darkness fills the air
Something is wrong
She is not herself
Finally you try to make it right
Tell her what she deserves to hear
But you can save your breath
This girl drank herself to death
