As I'm driving I'm captured by the view
So much beauty, the road becomes my muse
The heat is rising and my hands surfs through the wind
Cool, calm, collected is a child that lies within
I'm leaving today
I'm living it, I'm leaving it to change
I was naive, your love was like candy
Artificially sweet, I was deceived by the wrapping
Got caught in your web and I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed and devoured completely
I should have known that I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smoke, it was all an illusion
Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never know just where to turn for shelter from the storm
Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face
Everytime my father's fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon
It's not so easy to forget
All the lines you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And every day I'm afraid to come home
In fear of what I might see there
I was naive, your love was like candy
Artificially sweet, I was deceived by the wrapping
Got caught in your web and I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed and devoured completely
I should have known that I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smoke, it was all an illusion
Copying my Thinking Of You inspired bop Hard Candy I see
