Do what you should do To long for me to hear
You open up your heart
And watch my name appear
It’s a word for you to use
A girl without a cause
A name for what you lose
When it was never yours
The first time baby that I came to you
I’d do things that you wanted me to The second time I came to you
You found my love for you
The third time I came to you
Oh I knew
The last time I came to you
How my flesh and blood became the word
A name a girl outgrew
The girl is never real
She stands for your abuse
The girl is no ideal
It’s a word, a word for what you do In a world of broken rules
I found a place for you
Along my chain of fools
The first time baby that I came to you
I’d do things that you wanted me to The second time I came to you
You found my love for you
The third time I came to you
Oh I knew
The last time I came to you
How my flesh and blood became the word
