Little girls don't know how to be sweet girls.

Daddy didn't show me.
C
Face down, on top of your bed
G
Oh why did I give it up to you?

just high enough to get through?

Love, save the empty-ay,

And save me.

Scars feel like knives,

they tell us what we're fighting.

Storm, wait outside.

Love, save the empty-ay.

And save me.
