There was a girl I used to know She was oh so beautiful But she's not here anymore She had a college degree Smart as anyone could be Had so much to live for But she fell in love With the wrong kinda man He abused her love and treated her so bad There was not enough education in her world That could save the life of this little girl How come, how long It's not right, it's so wrong Do we let it just go on Turn our backs and carry on Wake up, for it's too late Right now, we can't wait She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes She tried to give a cry for help She even blamed things on herself But no one came to her aid Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell That's what we'd like to tell ourselves But no, it wasn't that way So she fell in love With the wrong kinda man And she paid with her life For loving that man So we cannot ignore We must look for the signs And maybe next time We might save somebody's life How come, how long It's not right, it's so wrong Do we let it just go on Turn our backs and carry on Wake up, for it's too late Right now, we can't wait She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes I on occasion met that guy It's been a feeling deep inside Something about him wasn't right The way he proves himself a man By beatin' his woman with his hands Oh I wish she'd seen the light (Hey) How can someone like that Call himself a man (He's not a man) Coz In reality he's far more less than that And we cannot ignore Whenever we see the signs 'Cause any kinda of abuse God knows it's a crime How come (how come...), how long (how long...) It's not right (it's not right...), it's so wrong (so wrong...) Do we let it just go on (just go...) Turn our backs and carry on Wake up (wake up...), for it's too late (too late...) Right now (now...), we can't wait (we can't wait...) She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes...

Is it the real life You're drowning me Cut off the way I used to feel I'm always held Stuck in plans The same thing It happens everyday Is a game When I'm stuck in the same place Too many times I think I gotta run from here Overload let it go Cause we're not done And I never could be on my own I'll be here skipping stones Until I've won Overload let it go Cause we're not done I never could be on my own I'll be here skipping stones Until I've won I thought I had time for it But the clock still ticking with time left for me to score Too much liquid to pour It's enough in my cup Im trying to fill yours up Spill it on the floor let the cup runeth over Aye I know I gotta crush But I dont know if im a lover I might have to to tuck that in The wrong wires light desires Don't you plug that in We were meant to bump shoulders Don't rub that in To get my heart rate up I rather go to the gym But I'm fronting I really want love in the end But I can get overwhelming when I feel it foreal Get it hot like a fever Electric like a heater Put my hands on it then its power to the people That feeling when You peeped it Spreading love like dough When u know u really knead it Is a game When I'm stuck in the same place Too many times I think I gotta run from here Overload let it go Cause were not done And I never could be on my own I'll be here skipping stones Until I've won Overload let it go Cause were not done I never could be on my own I'll be here skipping stones Until I've won
