lyrics

She's all dressed up
Like a Christmas tree with plastic tinsel
I can't tell where the girl begins and the make up ends
She's all messed up
Cause her sweet little heart has been broke like crystal
She might look fine but in her own mind she's going round the bends

She never used to look so sad
Sometimes I wonder

Whatever happened to the girl next door
She never used to wanna dress like a whore
But she's spent one too many lonely nights
Thinking she'll wake up next to Mr Right

But all the guys treat her like trash
They break her heart while they spend her cash
Now she's going nowhere and she's got no friends
And once that cycle starts well it never ends


She's had it rough
And it seems to be getting harder every day
Cause life's never easy on you, when you're on your own

She looks so tough
She thinks that this is the only way
The truth is she's just scared and she don't wanna be alone


Whatever happened to the girl next door
She had a future worth fighting for
But her spirit was crushed after countless lies
And most of the people never realise

That nobody ever said she was loved
She hit 20 and she'd had enough
The spark in her eyes it faded to a stare
She's been through so much now she just don't care


Whatever happened to the girl next door
She had enough can't take no more
Her eyes have cried so many tears
She's got so many scars from so few years

And everybody knows someone like her
Started out so well but took a turn for the worse
Just another kid that lost her way
It's a pattern that's repeating every day

Whatever happened to the girl next door?
Whatever happened?
