A teenager's lament about the loss of her best friend to popularity pressure.
Brand New Name

You're sitting up high,

While I'm sitting in dirt.

What happened to you?

I’m shattered and hurt



Cause you're not the girl

who was my best friend.

You gave that all up

So that you could ascend.



Your morals went out with last year’s shoes.

I wanted to save you but there’s no use.

You’re mean, heartless, and it’s such a shame;

You sold your soul for a brand new name.



Image meant everything to you.

You were never satisfied with me

The bitch in the mirror mocked you too much,

with impossible standards on TV



You gave up everything for fame

For terrified looks and glamorous clothes

I miss my normal best friend

Cause the fake new bitch really blows.



Your morals went out with last year’s shoes.

I wanted to save you but there’s no use.

You’re mean, heartless, and it’s such a shame;

You sold your soul for a brand new name.



You've broken my heart

To move up a step.

You gave up so much

just to gain a new rep.



Your morals went out with last year’s shoes.

I wanted to save you but there’s no use.

You’re mean, heartless, and it’s such a shame;

You sold your soul for a brand new name.
