*for Amy Winehouse
There was a girl with sadness in her eyes
One look and you can tell she's broken
She fell many, many times
And finally, she's beaten
But she was beautiful...
Wore her heart on her sleeves
An open book for all to see
Though her words soothed many souls
They did nothing to her own
But she was beautiful...
She fed on poison she thought she needed
And the World looked on at her self destruction
It's as if they wanted her sedated
For the sake of their sick amusement
But she was beautiful...
And now she's gone to little tears
Some say she got what she deserves
It was a matter of time, it was her own doing
But there's absolutely no denying...
She was beautiful.
