Intro

You’re beautiful

With the shiniest diamonds in your ears

You can’t hear your mother – she’s crying in the other room

She knows it won’t be okay

Farther from her daughter with the coming of eachday

So you pick up your books, that you never read

Run off to school like a good drama queen

Do you care where you’re going, or know where you’ve been?

Barely a woman, you’re 18 years in

Our faith is placed in second chances

As the angel and her demons dance it’s

Like you’re 18 years in with no way out

And you’re the star of the story you don’t care about

Just a little girl in a bigger world turning upside-down

Well, don’t’ you throw it all away when no one’s here to pull you out

And when you’re safe and sound inside your bed

I know you dream of things bigger than the things that you let live

When you’re safe and sound inside your bed

I know you dream of things I, I know you dream 18 years in

Like you’re 18 years in with no way out

And you’re the star of the story you don’t care about

Just a little girl in a bigger world turning upside-down

Well, don’t’ you throw it all away when no one’s here to pull you out
