oh my belle, my beautiful belle
you mourn in front of the mirror
each night you feel queerer
so you bury yourself, clutching the trigger
oh my belle, my pretty little belle
beauty you deny yourself
you’re afraid for the world to attest
so you shut your eyes to the rest
oh my belle, my lovely dove belle
you died when you put that mask
why did you do that to yourself
do you hate your skin that much?
oh my belle, my poor sad belle
you were once my sunshine
lighting up my world with your smile
you don’t even have to try
oh my belle, my beautiful dead belle
i’ll never forget the way the light left your eyes
and my only consolation is i’ll never hear your cries
oh my precious belle, flickers and fades and dies
