life is nothing but people and their questions
crazy situations, and where's our final destination
segregation, isolation, cost of free education
but the biggest mystery is love and communication
I got a little story about a girl I once knew
it's about all the pain and struggles she went through
the best thing about it, I dealt with her too
and the worst thing is she's probably just like you
she was a thin pretty girl without a care in the world
a million boys around her throwing diamonds and pearls
the thought of her not mine back then made me hurl
but competition's hard, 'specially love and its hurdles
her name was Haylee Jade, she stood 'bout 5'8
everything about her was absolutely great
all I ever wanted was to take her on a date
but only the lord knows when love will be fate
great, see this girl was beautiful but haunted by her past
drugs, depression, rape, repression, she knew love never lasts
and alas, I guess I knew it too, but who thinks there could be lies behind "I love you"
when she was single she would mingle with all of the boys
deep inside her heart she only kept them 'round as toys
never once did she ever hear my true voice
to her i was just there, and my love was just noise
she'd take a razor to the wrist, ignorant to bliss
i'd lift her heart up with a kiss, but be put back on the list
every pill she would pop, always begged her to stop
things like that weren't even the biggest mountains to top
she fell in love easy, and always got hurt
one even forced her innocence to the dirt
after that she sorta lost track of what she was worth
asking herself why her mother had to give birth
now she grows older, her heart's nothin but smolders
i'll hold her, but she thinks i'm tryna control her
keeps going back to everything that went wrong
never really saw what i saw all along
see live only begins when you leave your comfort zone
till then you're destined to be scared and alone
Haylee Jade never realized the things that I saw
even when our love was pressed up to that wall
found herself screaming to the Gods love isn't real
I had my chance once but here was the deal
I don't know what she saw in me, but it wasn't enough
I actually made her believe for a minute there is love
at the end of the night, all the fights and above
never got to prove what a heart is really made of
see i took her futher than anyone had gone before
when word got out everyone called her a whore
that was the last straw, she couldn't take it anymore
so she shut herself out of that heart shaped door
few months passed, and the scars never fade
love does last, but my proof was too late
i saw her there crying on her last day
he broke her heart again, and she swore on the blade
that night a young girl was found dead in the lake
bullet to the head, her name was Haylee Jade
if I could go back, her heart not her life I would take
I'm sure in heaven or hell wherever she went
she's finally seeing all the effort i spent
never once even after she went and broke my heart
did I ever fall out of love, but I never played that part
some nights I lay awake and think I'd join her
but for now, Haylee Jade, amor est victura.
