Miss America |
(Verse)
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 buzz of a song
Always surrounded but alone
(Chorus)
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 odd
Was it so hard to breathe?
(Verse)
Was that picture in the paper not the face you recognize?
Did the make-up never make up for the pain behind your eyes?
Cause I feel as if I know you when you're on my silver screen
But I don't know the dark places that you've been
(Chorus)
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 odd
Was it so hard to breathe?
(Interlude)
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'll live forever
(Chorus)
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 odd
Was it so hard to breathe?
