What about the girl who hides behind her faces Bitterness is the only thing she has to keep She wants someone to sweep her off of her feet And keep her held there in perfect ecstasy
What about the girl who wastes all of her beauty Her absent father didn't tell her she's worth more She tries to find a boy to fill in her heart's void She'll feel her life's complete as he slips out the door
Don't you want someone to love Don't you want someone who'll never give up Don't you want someone who'll make you feel enough Don't you want someone to love
What about the boy who keeps messing up No one to forgive him he doesn't know where to hold his heart He gives it to girls who don't even know him How can they when he doesn't even know himself
What about the boy who spends his love on pictures Doesn't know how to fight for a real girl anymore He calls her a mystery and gets caught up in his prison Until beauty is as numb his heart
Why deny him of someone who can take mistakes The only one who can pick him off the ground Why deny him of the best beauty around Someone who'll never deny him of the man he can be
What about the quiet kid in the corner Never had a father to show him how to be strong His happiness goes as far as his voice goes He'll never know his own role in changing the world
What about the kid who acts like a fool He desperate for any kind of acknowledgment He's given himself away so many times before He'll soon be gone with no place to go
