I bet ya never thought that it would never turn out like this

Mama's little girl, Daddy's little princess

But somewhere in your fairy tale everything went wrong

Now the sun don't shine, The words don't ryhme

You're out of time



You've been beaten down, kicked around on the ground

But you took it like a woman

Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed

But you took it like a woman

Pushed too far, pulled too hard, deeply scarred

I know you must have felt the pain

But you took it like a woman



Ya thought you had your Mr. Right but he was really Mr. Hyde

Ya gave him your most precious gift, you were his bleeding bride

He tied you up pulled your hair, and slapped your innocent face

Yeah, you were black and blue, he laughed at you

So what'd you do?



Aw you've been beaten down, kicked around on the ground

But you took it like a woman

Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed

But you took it like a woman

Pushed too far pulled too hard, deeply scarred

I know you must have felt the pain

But you took it like a woman



And so its over

Your fantasy life is finally at an end

And the world above is still a brutal place

And the story will start again



You been beaten down, kicked around on the ground

But you took it like a woman

Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed

But you took it like a woman

Pushed too far, pulled too hard, deeply scarred

I know you must have felt the pain

Felt the pain

I know you must have felt the pain

But you took it like a woman



You took it like a woman

I know you must have felt the pain

You took it like a woman

I know you must have felt the pain

You took it like a woman

I know you must have felt the pain

But you took it like a woman
