Generate meaning
1
She was a middle class girl
2
She was in over her head
3
She thought she could stand up in the deep end
4
He had a bullet-proof smile
5
He had money to burn
6
She thought she had the moon in her pocket
7
But now she's dead
8
She's so dead
9
Forever dead and lovely now
10
I've always been told to remember this
11
Don't let a fool kiss you
12
Never marry for love
13
He was hard to impress
14
He knew everyone's secrets
15
He wore her on his arm just like jewelry
16
He never gave but he got
17
He kept her on a leash
18
He's not the kind of wheel you fall asleep at
19
But now she's dead
20
Forever dead
21
Forever dead and lovely now
22
Come closer, look deeper
23
You're falling fast
24
Just like a plane on a stormy sea
25
She made up someone to be
26
She made up somewhere to be from
27
This is one business in the
28
World where that's no
29
Problem at all
30
Everything that is left
31
They will only plow under
32
Soon every one you know
33
Will be gone
34
And now she's dead
35
Forever dead
36
Forever dead and lovely now
37
But now she's dead
38
Forever dead
39
Forever dead and lovely now
40
I've always been told to remember this
41
Don't let a kiss fool you
42
Never marry for love
43
Everything has it's price
44
Everything has it's place
45
What's more romantic than dying in the moonlight?
46
Now they're all watching the sea
47
What's lost can never be broken
48
Her roots were sweet
49
But they were so shallow
50
And now she's dead
51
Forever dead
52
Forever dead and lovely now
53
And now she's dead
54
Forever dead
55
And she's so dead and lovely now
