The Competition Letra

She looked just like a china doll

With porcelain skin

She knew he'd let her win

He fell for her

As if he fell from his mother

To the arms of a lover

And he swore not to leave her side

For better or for worse

Whichever comes first

Sadly, the latter arose



She met this boy from Omaha

Whose life was handed to him

But still he wanted everything

His dreams were his ruin

But she couldn't wake him up

The bough broke, and he fell

Like the time he fell from his mother

Into the arms of a doctor

So he cried like that first day of his life

He knew he had broken

This beautiful porcelain

And how their world be the same?



So it never was the same

She whispers his name

"I'll stay if you want

But I could never be

Who you imagine me to be

I'll stay, I don't know what else to do

But I can't change for you

I won't change for you"
