Lyrics

0:16Did someone give you something
0:19To help you ease the pain
0:22Like the liquor in the bottle
0:26We watched you slip away
0:29And I feel like if I know you
0:33Through the buzz of a song
0:37Always surrounded but alone
0:45No goodbyes
0:48You'll always be miss America
0:51We watched you fly
0:54But nothing's free miss America
0:58And as you fall apart
1:01We just call it art
1:04Was it so hard to breathe
1:10Was that picture in the paper
1:13Not the face you recognise
1:16Did the make up never make up
1:20For the pain behind your eyes
1:23Cause I feel as if I know you
1:26When you're on my silver screen
1:29But I don't know
1:31The dark places that you've been
1:37But no goodbyes
1:40You'll always be miss America
1:43We watched you fly
1:47But nothing's free miss America
1:50And as you fall apart
1:53We just call it odd
1:56Was it so hard to breathe
2:03Does another voice sing
2:05In heaven's choir tonight
2:09To fill the silence left behind
2:16And I don't know
2:17What goes on in your mind
2:22I'm sure it's enough to make me cry
2:27Someday we'll find you'll live forever
2:35No goodbyes
2:38You'll always be miss America
2:41We watched you fly
2:45But nothing's free miss America
2:48And as you fall apart
2:51We just call it odd
2:54Was it so hard to breathe
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
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 that picture in the paper
Not the face you recognise
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
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
