Dead and Lovely

Lyrics

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
 Everything has its place
 What's more romantic
 Than 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
