(music Intro)
Verse 1
I saw her once in Camden Town,
boots unlaced, but crown still on
She lit a smoke with shaky hands,
sang a line, then she was gone
Her voice was bruised and full of brass,
like midnight sung through glass
And when she laughed,
it sounded like a question
with no answer coming back

Chorus
She poured her heart in empty rooms,
like red wine on the floor
She never asked for sympathy,
but damn, we gave her more
And though she swayed like she might fall,
she held the truth like gold
She wasn’t built for cages—
but that’s the only thing we sold

Verse 2
They called her wild, they called her lost,
they wrote her down in ink and gloss
But no one stayed to wipe her eyes
when mascara turned to frost
She didn’t beg, she didn’t plead,
she just bled into the beat
And every song she left behind
still walks in broken feet

Chorus
She poured her soul like whiskey shots
on bars that wouldn’t bend
She sang of love, she sang of rot,
and called it all a friend
And though her voice is silent now,
it echoes in the smoke
She left too soon, but left enough
for hearts she never broke

Bridge (gesproken / fluisterend gezongen)
They made her a headline,
but she was a verse
They praised her pain,
but never cured the curse
And still… she sang like she could save us all

Final Verse
Now there’s candles in the window,
and flowers on her name
But no stage could hold her spirit,
no rehab cure her flame
So if you hear her in your silence,
or feel her in your fall
Raise a glass,
and let her voice be all
