D5                 Bb5    
She was gone before a start
F5                     C5
always mending broken hearts
D5                   Bb5
making others miserable, not
F5                         A5
knowing who she's hurting
D5                     Bb5
father said: ?this day would be,
F5                 C5           
One for everyone to see"
D5                     Bb5                  F5
is this true you'll follow suits and have
                    A5
you learned a thing?


               Bb5               F5
It's just a selfish way to go
                C5                    D5
it's safe to say she'll never know
              Bb5                   G5
for every person there's a whole life story
C5
waiting to be told
                  Bb5          F5
when she is happy it's ok
                        C5                  D5
but when these people start to fade
                      Bb5                                             C5
then we'll just watch her self-destruct as she gets old


D5                           Bb5
she put up defensive shields
F5                             C5
to walk through all of life's minefields
D5                Bb5                 F5                     A5
all defined by make-up and a car behind she's hiding
D5                  Bb5
"father do you have to go,
F5                       C5
left me questions, I don't know"
D5                    Bb5              F5
any answers or ever close the life time
           A5
lie was true
                  Bb5                     F5
she's gonna move on with her life
                 C5                 D5
and take it one heart at a time
                      Bb5           G5        
and watch the little girl inside her
          C5
wait behind as she goes on
                   Bb5                      F5
but with this black heart she decides
                      C5                   D5
who she'll take in and shove aside
             Bb5                                         C5
until the day she sees that everyone has gone


Bb5                 C5
getting used to people leaving
A5                      D5
thinking true love is deceiving
Bb5                          F5              A5
soon she'll know how lonely it can be.
                 Bb5                  F5
Now was it really worth the pain?
             C5                        D5
a couple pills make her feel sane
                      Bb5
while she lives out the story
A5                  C5
written for the part she is to play
                    Bb5                    F5
with so much shame for her to hide
                        C5            D5
there's no more dignity, no pride
                      Bb5                                  C5
then there will only be dark in her light of day
                  Bb5              C5
and she will only see a reflection
          F5 E5       D5     C5
of her father's rejection
G5                              Bb5                    A5
Nothing will change until she breaks this life,
this life size mirror ( D5 Bb5 F5 C5 )
