    Lyrics
    She's an extraordinary girl,
    In an ordinary world,
    And she can't seem to get away

    He lacks the courage in his mind,
    Like a child left behind,
    Like a pet left in the rain

    She's all alone again,
    Wiping the tears from her eyes

    Somedays he feels like dying,
    She gets so sick of crying

    She sees the mirror of herself,
    An image she wants to sell,
    To anyone willing to buy

    He steals the image in her kiss,
    From her hearts apocalypse,
    From the one called whatsername
    She's all alone again,
    Wiping the tears from her eyes

    Somedays he feels like dying

    Somedays it's not worth trying,
    Now that they both are finding,
    She gets so sick of crying
