Emilie Autumn Smirking Girl song lyrics

If you turn the pages of the past

You'll often find a story without an ending

No 'Amen' to say it's over

All you have is a name you would rather forget

But it isn't over yet

Not when you've built your castle out of barricades

To guard against the fools you beat so long ago

Long before you even knew they were fools

But even longer since you saw a god in anyone

And for such an independent soul

You sure wanted to believe in someone else

Can you blame them that you hate them?

Smirking girl, you ask too much

Who said anyone would show you the way?

Who said anyone would care what you'll do someday?

You're all alone here

You can't buy what isn't there

You're all alone here

You can't change what isn't fair

How obstinate you are

You can't forgive them

All they did was make you cry

On every day that passed you by

How wise they were to know you didn't like them

How foolish they should have to ask you why
