Píseň: Dead And Lovely
She was a middle class girl She was in over her head She thought she would Stand up in the deep end He had a bullet proof smile He had money to burn She thought she had the moon In her pocket But now she's dead She's so dead Forever dead and lovely now I've always been told to Remember this... Don't let a fool kiss you Never marry for love He was hard to impress He knew everyone's secrets He wore her on his arm Just like jewelry He never gave but he got He kept her on a leash He's not the kind of wheel You fall asleep at But now she's dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now Come closer, look deeper You've fallen fast Just like a plane on a Stormy sea She made up someone to be She made up somewhere to be from This is one business in the World where that's no Problem at all Everything that is left They will only plow under Soon every one you know Will be gone And now she's dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now Now she's dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now I've always been told to Remember this... Don't let a kiss fool you Never marry for love Everything has its price [2x] What's more romantic Then dying in the moonlight? Now they're all watching the sea What's lost can never be broken Her roots were sweet But they were so shallow And now she's dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now And now she's dead Forever dead And she's so dead and lovely now
