I used to be a little girl, I used to live in another world
Before they beat me into dust, before they sat and let me rust
I can't be true, No not like you
I swear I used to have a heart, I swear I used to have a part
Somewhere that let me feel things, somewhere that let those feelings sing
I never cry, I don't know why
But when I was a girl I was beautiful like you
And when I was a girl I could be who I wanted to
And when I felt down, I could cry and let it out
I was a girl, I was a girl
So as the years keep passing by my friends they keep on asking why
Why am I such a f*cking freak? Why do I always seem so weak?
I can't be true, No not like you
But still I like to have my fun, it's just it has to be with guns
And bats, guitars, and G. I. Joes, you see that dolls are just for hoes
I never cry, I don't know why
But when I was a girl I was beautiful like you
And when I was a girl I could be who I wanted to
And when I felt down, I could cry and let it out
I was a girl, I was a girl
When I was just fifteen years old my best friend's mother got too bold
She showed me oh so many things, but let her hands do the talking
I can't be true, No not like you
So when my friends joke about rape I laugh as if it's all okay
That's the way they all treated me, I guess I wanted it, you see
I never cry, I wonder why?
But when I was a girl I was beautiful like you
And when I was a girl I could be who I wanted to
And when I felt down, I could cry and let it out
I was a girl, I was a girl
But when I was a girl I was beautiful like you
And when I was a girl I could be who I wanted to
And when I felt down, I could cry and let it out
I was a girl, I was a girl
