[Verse 1]
I knew a girl who hated the world
She used her body to sell her soul
Every town they'd break her and pay
Tear out her heart and leave her in pain

[Pre-Chorus]
I never found out how she survived
All of the sadness she kept inside
I never found out how she could lie
With a smile on her face and the scratches she'd hide

[Chorus]
You could love her, if you paid
You could have her everyday
You could love her, if you prayed
You could have her every way, oh

[Verse 2]
Down on her knees she bled on the floor
This hopeless life, she wanted no more
Dead in her eyes and cold to the bone
She opened her eyes and saw she was alone

[Pre-Chorus]
She never found out how much I tried
All of the sadness she kept made me blind
She never found out how much I cried
The rope so tight on the night that she died
[Chorus]
You could love her, if you paid
You could have her everyday, oh
You could love her, if you prayed
You could have her every way, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I never found out how she survived
A life lived in lies is a life of denial
I never found out how she could lie
A smile on her face and the darkness inside

[Chorus]
You could love her, if you paid
You could have her everyday, oh
You could love her, if you prayed
You could have her every way, oh

[Outro]
You could love her, if you paid
You could have her everyday, oh
You could love her, if you prayed
You could have her every way, oh
