lyrics

I made this for you, it’s not mine anymore
Cross my name off the card and open the box
And tell me what you think is inside
Cuz I made this for you, it’s not for me.

I made her for you, I can’t give her my name
You can dye her hair blonde and buy her new clothes
The clothes she has are full of holes
So please give her a name, and give her a home.

I made her for you, I can’t say that she’s fair
She’s got scars on her back, her face has one eye
You see a vision I deny
Put a crown on her head and give her a prize.

I made this for you, I don’t know what I made
I built all the parts, I can’t tell you how
Please take these parts, please take them now
And please give them a name, she won’t be afraid.
