⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ﻬ ☂️ ɪɴᴛʀᴏᴅᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴ ☂️ ﻬ ] if you don't already know me, you can call me eva! i'm a 16 year old singer/songwriter. this is track 8 of my original album, єffσятℓєѕѕ. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ﻬ ☂️ ᴍᴇssᴀɢᴇ ☂️ ﻬ ] This song is about my sister getting bullied at school, which caused me a lot of pain since she never did anything wrong to anyone. I think a lot of people are just jealous of her. We were talking about this with my mom and she told us this maxim which inspired this song: no one kicks a dead dog. Meaning, if you aren’t conventionally “successful” in life, then no one will bother you, and vice versa. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ﻬ⚜ ʟʏʀɪᴄꜱ ⚜ﻬ ] VERSE 1 I knew a girl whose heart was gold she carried broken people like stones laughed with her teeth before she learned some crowds confuse kindness with prey PRECHORUS all pretty things get ruined treated less than human they pulled her wings off her slowly they threw cruel words at her she wondered what she had done to deserve the humiliation CHORUS no one kicks at a dead dog they all love to beat her down oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh she was never hard to love effortless to scapegoat oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh VERSE 2 her name was stained in passing time called dramatic for bleeding all out and after awhile she stopped defending herself, thinking that she deserved it PRECHORUS all pretty things get ruined treated less than human they pulled her wings off her slowly they threw cruel words at her she wondered what she had done to deserve the humiliation CHORUS no one kicks at a dead dog they all love to beat her down oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh she was never hard to love effortless to scapegoat oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh BRIDGE some wounds never stop jetting even after healing from honey they turned her pain into jokes reminds me why I don't ever let my guard down CHORUS (extended) no one kicks at a dead dog they all love to beat her down oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh she was never hard to love effortless to scapegoat oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh every saint needs a devil it's so sad we live in this world oh woah oh woah oh yeah oh woah oh woah oh where have all the good ones gone?
