Beautiful girl with the long raven hair
With the perfect smile so straight and white
Beautiful girl traveling here and there
It’s not on your dime, so hop the next flight
Beautiful girl with an innocent glow
No need to know what is right
Oh, but beautiful girl, do you know?
Can you see from another’s sights?
Beautiful girl, do you even care
That their friends are dying or that they’re
Crying all day and all night?
Beautiful girl, do you know what’s right?
Your family steals their house
To put fine foods in your mouth
For you purge yourself in front of them
To look so thin, to do it again
Beautiful girl, so pure of heart
No pain in your eyes, no thoughts in your head
Beautiful girl, ignorance is your art
Nowhere left to hide from your hands so red
Beautiful girl with the beautiful soul
Such pain in the world you were never told
Beautiful girl, don’t worry yourself
This pain isn’t for you, just everyone else
