Miss America |
Did someone give you something to help you ease the pain? |
Like the liquor in the bottle, we watched you slip away |
And I feel as if I know you through the bars of a song |
Always surrounded but alone |
But no goodbyes, you’ll always be Miss America |
We watched you fly, but nothing’s free Miss America |
And as you fall apart, we just call it art |
Was it so hard to breathe? |
Was the picture in the paper not the face you recognise? |
Did the make up never make up for the pain behind your eyes? |
Cos I feel as if I know when you’re on my silver screen |
But I don’t know the dark places that you’ve been |
But no goodbyes, you’ll always be Miss America |
We watched you fly, but nothing’s free Miss America |
And as you fall apart, we just call it art |
Was it so hard to breathe? |
Does another voice sing in Heaven’s choir tonight |
To fill the silence left behind? |
And I don’t know what goes on in your mind |
I’m sure it’s enough to make me cry |
Someday we’ll find you lived forever |
But no goodbyes, you’ll always be Miss America |
We watched you fly, but nothing’s free Miss America |
And as you fall apart, we just call it art |
Was it so hard to breathe? |
