Its been five years since I've seen her face 
She's the holy ghost lost without a trace 
And now were left with the what ifs 
Its been five years since she left for LA 
She's an angel with a dirty face 
And it seems to me 
She's a casuality of all the pressure 
That we put on her 
And now we've lost her for good 
Its such a shame shame shame 
That our homecoming queen 
Was a lot like you and a lot like me 
And she never walked on water 
uess no one really saw her 

She was so adored by everyone 
When it came to looks she was next to none 
But loved partying and having too much fun 
Then she hooked up with the wrong someone 
And he promised everything under the sun 
And it seems to me 
She's a casuality of all the pressure 
That he put on her 
And now we've lost her for good 
Its such a shame shame shame 
That our homecoming queen 
Was a lot like you and a lot like me 
And she never walked on water 
'Cause no one really saw her 
Its such a shame shame shame 
That our homecoming queen 
Had a lot to prove and so many to please 
She's just somebody's daughter 
Just looking for somebody to love her 

Well I never knew you 
Wish I could've saved you 
From losers that drained you 
Before you got strung out 
With so much potential 
How could you let us down 
Its such a shame shame shame 
That our homecoming queen 
Was a lot like you and a lot like me 
And she never walked on water 
'Cause no one really saw her 
Shame shame shame 
That our homecoming queen 
Had a lot to prove and so many to please 
She's just sombody's daughter 
Looking for somebody to love her 
She's just somebody's daughter 
Looking for somebody to love her 

Its such a shame shame shame...
