She was precious, like a flower

Yeah, she grew wild; wild but innocent

Perfect prayer in a desperate hour

She was everything beautiful and different

Stupid boy, you can't fence that in

Stupid boy, it's like holding back the wind.

She laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and crushed her plans

She never even knew she had a choice

That's what happens when the only voice

She hears is telling her she can't

Stupid boy, you stupid boy.

So what made you think you could take her life

And just push it, push it around?

I guess you built yourself up so high

You had to take her and break her down.

She laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and crushed her plans

She never even knew she had a choice

That's what happens when the only voice

She hears is telling her she can't

Stupid boy.

Ah, you always had to be right

And now you lost the only thing

That ever made you feel alive.

She laid her heart and soul right in your hands

And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

She never even knew that she had a choice

That's what happens when the only voice

She hears is telling her she can't

Stupid boy.

Ah, it's the same old, same old stupid boy

It took her a while to work it out she could run

But once she did, she was long gone, long gone

Yeah...

Stupid boy, yeah

You're just a stupid boy

You never get it right, do you?
