[Verse 1]
The black you went back to was far too deep
While the world watched you break, we began to weep
You wore your heavy heart like wings made of lead
With a crown of dark hair and the words that you said
The stage in Camden is quiet and cold tonight
No more flashing cameras, no more blinding light
[Pre-Chorus]
They wanted the madness, they wanted the fall
But you were just a girl standing against the wall
Your jazzy chords are frozen, your teardrop turns to stone
An angel left to bleed on a neon throne
[Chorus]
You reached the twenty-seventh circle and you had to check in
To that tragic club of legends where the sleepless nights begin
But you’re more than the heartbreak, more than the final page
The angel who sang the blues finally flew out of the cage
No longer a target for the headlines and the ghosts
You’re the beautiful siren that the world misses the most
[Verse 2]
We still hear your „Valerie” echoing through the rain
A generational soul that was broken by the pain
We’re singing your anthem
You were perfect in your errors, far ahead of your time
It was a tragic ending, a life cut way too soon
The angel who sang the blues now howling at the moon
[Bridge]
I’m whispering your lyrics to the cold mirror on the wall
Remembering your strength through the rise and the fall
Twenty-seven winters of a fire burning bright
You walked through the black, straight into the light
No rehab can hold you, you’re finally free
[Chorus]
You reached the twenty-seventh circle and you had to check in
To that tragic club of legends where the sleepless nights begin
But you’re more than the heartbreak, more than the final page
The angel who sang the blues finally flew out of the cage
No longer a target for the headlines and the ghosts
You’re the beautiful siren that the world misses the most
