I was warned about you

The monster under my bed.

I was warned about you

The devil inside of my head.

I was warned about all the lies and deceit

All the things you'd do to get me praying at your feet.

I knew the day would someday come

When I was faced with you, how could I be so dumb?

You were right there in front of me

Yet I was too stupid to see.

What I was warned about

Was actually what I couldn't live without.

You see, they didn't warn me about the monster

Who in fact had eyes a deep deep blue.

With lips so red and plump and full

Someone so full of life, someone much like you.

They didn't warn me about the devil

Of how loveable he could be.

How he could hold you so dearly so closely so near

Then drop you, drop someone just like me.

They described you as a beast

The villain of my life.

But you were just a boy

And just as they warned, you sliced through my heart with a knife.

I was warned about you

Of what you'd do.

But I'm just a girl

And I fell in love with you.
