Miss America (Acoustic Version from Angel Studios) - James Blunt
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 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
And 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
