I do what
Any normal person would do
I eat
Sleep
Drink
Work
And one day I'm gonna die
But all of these things cover up my lie
My lie to the world
Lie to the world
Lie to the world
I appear to be normal enough
A girl like any other
One with no extraordinary ability
That anyone can see
But if you'd just look closer
If you'd just take the time to
You would find out that
I'm the female entity that
If you're gonna play
Captain Obvious,
Lives next door
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
I shut myself away
Guard my secrets carefully
I am a mystery
Mystery
Mystery
Known only by the title
I've been given
I baffle landlords and peeping toms alike
Who am I really?
What am I really like?
Could you actually grow to love me?
I don't even know myself
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
I do what any chica does in a day
I eat
Sleep
Drink
Work
And one day I'm gonna die
Mama says that I am so special
So unique
Quite a character
But what really makes me
Stand out from the crowd
Could someone please tell me
Could someone please show me
Cos in my mind I'm just like everyone else
Nothing special
Nothing special
Or are these thoughts a bunch of lies
Bunch of lies
Bunch of lies
I appear to be your average chica
With my raven hair and leopard eyes
With no extraordinary gifts
That is obvious from sight
But guys
I can tell you now that
If you'd look closer
If you'd take the time to
You would see that
I'm the creature that,
If you're gonna play
Captain Obvious,
Lives next door
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
I shut myself away
Guard my secrets carefully
I am the greatest cold case
Cold case
Cold case
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
But I assure you know
That I am no cliche
Who am I really?
What am I really like?
Could you actually grow to love me?
I don't even know myself
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
An ordinary life
With an extraordinary destiny
Maybe it's so
Maybe it's not
Who knows
Who cares
Whatever life throws
I think that I can take it
When life is hard
I think I can make it
When life turns into hell
I refuse to break down
I say
Bring it on
I'm the ghost that
If you're gonna play
Captain Obvious
Lives next door
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
I shut myself away
Guard my secrets carefully
I am the greatest riddle made
Riddle made
Riddle made
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
But I think it's safe to say that
Ordinary is not in my definition
It's not what sums me up
I will always keep you guessing
Who am I really?
What am I really like?
Could you actually grow to love me?
I don't even know myself
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
The girl next door
Who am I really?
What am I really like?
Could you actually grow to love me?
I don't even know myself
I am the girl next door
The girl next door
