She’s apologized and begged forgiveness But no one listens ‘cause they don’t believe in second chances It’s like she’s not even there She’s just a whisper in this new world And it’s not fair. What would she give to start all over? What would she give for a place where no one knows her name? A place where she has no reputation A place where she’s made no mistakes What would she for a blank slate? It’s like everybody else is perfect Like they got something pure to compare to her to Everybody’s done something at least one thing wrong They’ve got some starches on their cup of life. So why do they make her like she doesn’t belong? Mistakes are always part of the past And even though, that is why it shapes our future. You can learn from both of them Well, this girl has been taught by all her bad choices And she’s never gonna make them again. What would she give to start all over? What would she give for a place where no one knows her name? A place where she has no reputation A place where she’s made no mistakes What would she give for a blank slate?
