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 like if I know you
Through the buzz 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 odd
Was it so hard to breathe
Was that picture in the paper
Not the face you recognize
Did the make up never make up
For the pain behind your eyes
Cuz 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
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
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
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
