There was a trail of destruction that lead straight to you Ignored all the signs that I wish weren't true You're such a good actor, I guess you had me fooled Guess I was convenient when I was around 'Cause you love attention, the talk of the town And I'd build you up while you'd just tear me down (down, down, down) What's done is done, I'm on the other side now So you can play the golden boy And lose yourself in all the noise of You're kind and you're so perfect I'd love to be your girlfriend You were lucky once How's life living on the surface? We'd talk all the time, now we don't even speak I'm wide awake while you're both still asleep You're so unaffected by our history What's done is done, I'm on the other side now So you can play the golden boy And lose yourself in all the noise of You're kind and you're so perfect I'd love to be your girlfriend You were lucky once How's life living on the surface? You can really play the part While you stay breaking all these hearts Oh, what's it like to be his girlfriend? Looks good, but it's a burden You were lucky once Have fun livin' on the surface I'm thankful you're no longer wasting my time I'm grateful I gave up on reading your mind I know that it's much better ending like this Just one on your list, deceived and dismissed No, I'm not alone being left in your mess It should bring me closure, or something, I guess But all that I'm left with are unproven words That everyone heard, and what makes it worse Is you just play the golden boy And got so lost in all the noise of You're kind and you're so perfect I'd love to be your girlfriend How's life living on the surface? You can really play the part While you stay breaking all these hearts Oh, what's it like to be his girlfriend? Looks good, but it's a burden You were lucky once Have fun livin' on the surface
