Fourteen, I told myself that At the turn of the decade I'd call it quits And he sat pretty at the bottom of the pool With the belt in his hand Sixteen, I told myself that If we wanna keep it off, we've gotta get our act together So I watched him sink to the floor So I wouldn't have to do it myself Tore off my mouth, I prayed the birds sang my name If they ever get up, they'll sell me short, throw me away As she told me "The water here's just fine" But I woke up in your outfit and my life's still the same The guy next door with flags in his garage Said he's not worth the harm but you still got his number He wishes I was gone and you still let him run? God forbid I get a little scared The guy next door, he likes to shoot for fun And they all love him for it And on the TV he sits down and watches When they say I'm a scary girl Tore off my mouth, I prayed the birds sang my name If they ever get up, they'll sell me short, throw me away As she told me "The water here's just fine" But I woke up in your outfit and my life's still the same Woke up in your outfit and my life's still the same I'm no stranger to the sink or the razor Don't stop, watch it fall The hair on my legs and my arms The hair on my legs and my arms The hair on my legs and my arms Woke up, dented my face, hoped the best again Anything to stay away from him Said I dreamt of something last night Road run, love to use, play me for a fool And I deal my own cards now But somehow I'm still never satisfied, satisfied, satisfied I'm a no-good liar But I'll black out for a week Burn a hole in my hand All alone, all alone, all alone I'm a no-good liar 'Til he says he's proud of me And I die where I stand Tell my mother I'm not coming home
