this brand new girl

remember me?
remember when I was something
to you
to them
to me?

that good old girl
she made me smile
and i put up with her shit
because she was my life
and i knew she was forever

that good old girl
she was so innocent
in the broken world
she was the only one
who was more naïve than me

that good old girl
she made me feel loved
though i wasn't really
but she did a damn good job 
of pretending

that good old girl
i wanted to give her the world
because she made me feel
like i had some worth
when i gave her half my soul

that good old girl
she saw me break
and she broke me more
she broke too
and she became a brand new girl

this brand new girl
she is foreign to me
still i smiled and spoke
because i thought she'd come around
just like she always had

this brand new girl
i cannot look her in the eye
i am nothing to her
it took me six months
to realise she'd never forgive me

this brand new girl
is so unbelievably popular
look, there go my friends
her, her, him
off to worship their goddess

this brand new girl...
i tell my friends what she did
and they say they care 
but they don't care enough
to stop worshiping her too

this brand new girl
gets awards for kindness
if only people knew
that she does not fucking care
that she left me 

friendless
scared
self-loathing
worthless
just because i trusted her
