I wrote this song for a friend that i hadn't seen for nearly three years and the only reason i saw her was because she was in the main headline for the channel 10 9 7 and 2 news. she had commited suicide that weekend because of bulying at a school camp that she had attended This is for you Beautiful mistake AKA song for Amy VERSE1 Did the road shift then take your place, Leaving you with your disgrace. Do you remember when we were eight, Friends of a year yet we knew each trait. At least I do. Your story smeared across the news, The tale of your hurt and self abuse. When I new you we were gonna grow up to teach, But from you I learnt the greatest lesson I will ever receive. PRE -CHORUS Coz I’m still here and I’m still strong, If the world gives up on me I got my self to lean on ½ CHORUS Why is it so hard to breathe? Maybe it’s the break inside of me You took the easy way out I see Will I get there wait for me Wait for me Daddy’s little angle flew away Made yourself a grey sky from sunny day The past was a door I forgot to close Explain your mistake like one of those Coz I’ve lost you Take care where you’re heading Coz clouds are too soft for your treading People leave that’s what I expect But you were meant to live with no regret PRE -CHORUS Coz I’m still here and I’m still strong If the world gives up on me I got myself to lean on CHORUS Why is it so hard to breathe? Maybe it’s the break inside of me You took the easy way out I see Will I get there wait for me CHORUS PART 2 And Leave behind what you don’t need The stupid words on which pain feeds You weren’t meant to live for this but I never lived past 14 so I don’t know what it is BRIDGE Nothing last forever so love while you still have it, Don’t take anything for granted Coz you never know when something great will come to an end Speak your mind don’t listen to others like she would Cause it never turns out too good This is my final goodbye my….. tired friend Can we rest now? CHORUS Why is it so hard to breathe Maybe it’s the break inside of me You took the easy way out I see Will I get there wait for me And leave behind what you don’t need The stupid words on which pain feeds You weren’t meant to live for this I never lived past 14 so I don’t know what it is CHORUS PART 3 What they said they won’t even say But it made life seem so far away I don’t blame anyone at all your Beautiful mistake You could have had it all Can we rest now? My tired friend FOR AMY 1988 – 2003
