She Always Knew It First


It isn�t easy to be the popular girl
when we all root for the underdog
but it�s easier than obscurity
for the tried and true attention hog
She was only what we wanted of her
what we wanted to have, to hate or to be
She was only skin deep afterall
you can�t believe all that you see

She was the one who knew what that song was about
which isn�t to say she was so well-versed
She only knew what everyone else did
but she always knew it first

Too much drama, too much turbulence
Too much for anyone to buy
Even though she told the truth
It somehow seemed like a lie
And while she was seldom trusted
She was always in demand
She was the air we were all were seeking
When we needed our fires fanned

She was the one who knew what that song was about
which isn�t to say she was so well-versed
She only knew what everyone else did
but she always knew it first

She was talked about, passed around
desired and reviled
He was right when he said she laughs too much
but even he loved when she smiled
She lived her life under a hot spotlight
Too bright for her thin facade
They were saying she could never keep up the act
As she disappeared with a wink and a nod
