Mistaken Identity

The girl in the chair
with the long golden hair
Well that used to be me
A flirtatious smile unpredictably wild
Always trying to please
I was always walking
one step ahead
Or so I thought until the monster crawled into my bed
Rewind and erase
that shock look on your face
'cause your mona lisa is dead
A million words
a thousand days
The girl I used to be
has a terrible case
of mistaken identity
And yesterday's girl
is not what you see
It's a terrible case
of mistaken identity
The sun likes to rise
and the moon likes to fall
And that's kinda like my life
I've played the role
of the nice girl next door
Who gets cut like a knife
Now I'm not looking
for apology eyes
And I don't want to spend
a night on a bed
of beautiful lies
Erase and rewind
leave that sick girl behind
And fast forward, fast forward
A thousand days...
The girl I used to be
has a terrible case
of mistaken identity
And yesterday's girl
is not what you see
it's a terrible case
of mistaken identity
That's not me
it's just not me
The girl I used to be
has a terrible case
of mistaken identity
And yesterday's girl
is not what you see
it's a terrible case
of mistaken identity
