Pretty Girl Tab

by Antigone Rising


PRETTY GIRL- album New & Used


That girl didn't have time to waste 

she spread herself way too thin 

thought she could cut in and win the race
               
the pretty girl

did not fit in

I'm so tired of waiting for you

(pretty girl)

Pull the trigger

And as she stands there screaming

pretending that she's leaving
                               
she's used to getting things her way

that girl didn't know what to say

she acted like it was no big deal

always spinning her tired cliches
pretty girl

she was not for real

I'm so tired of waiting for you

(pretty girl)
pull the trigger

                             
And as she stands there screaming
                          
pretending that she's leaving

she's used to getting things her way

Her whole life story's fiction
                     
a walking contradiction
                           
the same shit on a different day
                                        
Perfect life, perfect world, perfect smile, pretty girl
                                         
Surface life, surface world, surface smile, pretty girl
                                               
All your life's, an open door, this door's not open, anymore
                  
And if at first you don't succeed

Pull the trigger
                          
And as she lies there bleeding
              
resenting not succeeding
                          
the pretty girl just fades away

She wants us all believing

that she's not even grieving

and that she got the final say
                                        
Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl, Pull the Trigger
