Of all these glorious places and these typical faces
I've got a story to tell if you would just sit still
I'm not the prettiest girl, compared to this pretty world
But I've got something to offer if you would give me the time
I'll make no promise I won't keep and I promise the truth
I once sat top of the world with views that birds can't compete with
Chose who I would sleep with and who I would dismiss
I didn't need a relation or a family vacation
Just the little people running round to cover my tracks
Then I find I am alone, no one to cover my back
Once they knew to take advantage of this once pretty girl
All of my inspiration has fallen straight to the floor
Flat on my back eyes wide open staring back at the world
I've done my time in the mirror, I've done my time with the worst parts
Of living with no start and no means to an end
They can take what they want and they can steal all they can
But they won't ever find a reason to get me back
Now I've found my inspiration and I've found my path
Now I've found myself a friend and I want you back
All of my inspiration has now been picked from the floor
With my head high I'm climbing back to the top of the world
All of my inspiration has now been picked from the floor
With my head high I'm climbing back to this now pretty girl
I've got a story to tell if you would just sit still
I'm not the prettiest girl, compared to this pretty world
But I've got something to offer if you would give me the time
I'll make no promise I won't keep and I promise the truth
I once sat top of the world with views that birds can't compete with
Chose who I would sleep with and who I would dismiss
I didn't need a relation or a family vacation
Just the little people running round to cover my tracks
Then I find I am alone, no one to cover my back
Once they knew to take advantage of this once pretty girl
All of my inspiration has fallen straight to the floor
Flat on my back eyes wide open staring back at the world

Now I've found my inspiration and I've found my path

All of my inspiration has now been picked from the floor
