A Story About a Girl Songtext
von Our Lady Peace

Suddenly, I′m something I'm not
You′re something that you bought
Was it something I said
My friend
Little girl are you tripping on this
Are you tripping all over it
You better come up for air
A story about a girl
My story about the world

And are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
And are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promised I'll always, always
Be there


Baby girl, stand up and fight
This is not some paradise
It's just where we live
Finally, you think you′re alright
Then it eats you up alive
You better get used to it
A story about a girl
My story bout the world

And are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
And are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promised I′ll always, always
Be there

With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things
You are

I know it's stuck inside your head
You′re alone you better get used to it
And I know the feeling has to end
You're strong it sucks you in again
And you′re lost you can't make any sense
This world it tears you limb from limb
And hold on you′re nothing but the best


And are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
And are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promised I'll always, always
Be there

With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things
You are
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things
You are
