Amy

Breaking through, a rising star
Dreaming of a life so far
From the one you lived each day
Since the day he went away 

Deep within a tragic soul
Alcohol may fill the hole
You built your dreams on moving sands
Then savaged by the scathing hands 

Chorus
A broken bird so hurt with pain
Fragility; a life in vain
A talent from beyond the years
Has filled the world with shallow tears 

Sharpened by a breaking heart
You gave your all, you played your part
But sometimes love can hurt so much
You cannot bear a simple touch
Emotions poured into your words
Caged with all the broken birds
On the stage; a singing lark
Behind the scenes, a love so dark 

A broken bird so hurt with pain
Fragility; a life in vain
A talent from beyond the years
Has filled the world with shallow tears 

Alcohol will give you strength
To hide behind the sweet pretence
But broken souls will never heal
Broken dreams they came to steal 

Given time you may have found
The reasoning for your sweet sound
A life that could have given peace
A love so true, would give release 

A broken heart can hurt so bad
A broken mind is what you had
Questioned your worth for another
Mistaken as a star crossed lover 

A broken bird so hurt with pain
Fragility; a life in vain
A talent from beyond the years
Has filled the world with shallow tears
