[Verse 1]
I know a girl
Who grew up way too fast
In a house made of glass
Where things got broken
And I know a girl
Who didn't let it keep her down
Pushed the pedal to the ground
Kept those wheels rolling

[Pre-Chorus]
When all you want is what you had
And what you had you can't get back

[Chorus]
You speed on up
To slow back down
That's just the way the world goes round
It'll break your heart
It'll make you think you've lost everything
In the kitchen sink
When I'm down and out and when it hurts like hell
I tell myself
That I know a girl

[Verse 2]
Who could've swore she found the one
Just to wind up looking dumb when he left her
But I know a girl
Who finally learned to love herself
Without needing someone else to make thins better
And I hear her talking to me in the mirror

[Chorus]
Yeah you speed on up
To slow back down
That's just the way the world goes round
It'll break your heart
It'll make you think you've lost everything
In the kitchen sink
When I'm down and out and when it hurts like hell
I tell myself
That I know a girl
[Bridge]
Who always pulls me through
Sometimes I think she knows me better
Better than I do (than I do)

[Chorus]
Yeah you speed on up (you speed on up)
To slow back down (to slow back down)
That's just the way the world goes round
It'll break your heart
It'll make you think you've lost everything
In the kitchen sink
When I'm down and out and when it hurts like hell
I tell myself (I tell myself)
That I know a girl
I know a girl
