Homecoming Queen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's been five years since I've seen her face She's the Holy Ghost lost without a trace And now we're left with the "what-ifs" It's been five years since she left for LA She's an angel with a dirty face And it seems to me She's a casualty of all the pressure That we put on her And now we've lost her for good [Chorus 1] It's such a shame, shame, shame That our homecoming queen Was a lot like you and a lot like me And she never walked on water Guess no one really saw her [Verse 2] She was so adored by everyone When it came to looks she was next to none But loved partin' and havin' too much fun Then she hooked up with the wrong someone And he promised everything under the sun And it seems to me She's a casualty of all the pressure That he put on her And now we've lost her for good [Chorus 2] It's such a shame, shame, shame That our homecoming queen Was a lot like you and a lot like me And she never walked on water Guess no one really saw her A shame, shame, shame That our homecoming queen Had a lot to prove and so many to please She's just somebody's daughter Just lookin' for somebody to love her [Bridge] Well I never knew you Wish I could've saved you From losers that drained you Before you got strung out With so much potential How could you let us down [Chorus] It's such a shame, shame, shame That our homecoming queen Was a lot like you and a lot like me And she never walked on water Guess no one really saw her Shame, shame, shame That our homecoming queen Had a lot to prove and so many to please She's just somebody's daughter Just lookin' for somebody to love her She's just somebody's daughter Just lookin' for somebody to love her [Outro Repeat X8] It's such a shame, shame, shame
