Oh there once was a girl
And she wanted it all
But she didn’t know how high the price was

Oh yes it would cost her
Her one eternal lover
But she was selfish and tossed him away
Whoa you can't take it back

And the boy was forgotten
He felt so unwanted
And the girl walked away very happy
Yes but then it struck her
She still wanted her lover
She gotten it all but wanted him too
Whoa you cant take it back

Wanted her cake and to eat it too
Nothing she could do
He was gone forever the fates had him
She had such a tantrum
But didn’t regret what she done
Because she still had everything she wanted
Whoa just don’t you look back

So she had a wonderful time
With her friends and wine
But still had that very empty feeling
She just wanted to be loved
But was not sure what love was
She wondered if it was even real
Whoa just don’t you look back

As for her lover
He tried to forgive her
But knew she was wrong and never loved him

One does not trade another
Especially if it’s a lover
If he went back it would happen again
Whoa the lights fade to black

His trust and loved vanished
The girl and him finished
Still cared but only for a second

He went through a depression
Sadness mixed with aggression
But time heals all wounds even one this huge
Whoa the lights fade to black

And now they both must walk alone
Shows who's deep and who's shallow
I think the answer we know
It was the girl who wanted it all
Who will be the one to fall
The boy wont answer her call
Don’t forgive just forget
Trust me it is for the best
"Power goes to the one who cares less"

But she didn’t know how high the price was
