Tenille Townes – Stupid Boy lyrics

[Verse 1]
She was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and different

[Pre-Chorus]
Stupid boy, you can't fence that in
Stupid boy, it's like holding back the wind

[Chorus]
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
Then you stole her every dream and crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice, and
That's what happens when the only voice she hears is tellin' her she can't
Stupid boy

[Verse 2]
What made you think you could take her life
And just push it and push it around?
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her and break her down

[Chorus]
Well, she laid her heart and soul right in your hands
Then you stole her every dream and crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice, and
That's what happens when the only voice she hears is tellin' her she can't
You stupid boy

[Post-Chorus]
You always had to be right
And now you lost the only thing
That ever made you feel alive
Whoa, you stupid boy

[Bridge]
It took a while for me to figure out
I could run, and when I did
I was long gone, long gone
You're the same old stupid boy
You're the same old stupid boy

[Chorus]
She never even knew she had a choice, and
That's what happens when the only voice she hears is tellin' her she can't
You stupid boy, yeah

[Outro]
Stupid boy, yeah
You're the same old, same old stupid boy
